+1, I always struggle with this with Debian (How to order: Sid, Weezy, Jessie?) Having a fixed schedule, as QGIS does, it could be even better to encode the date in the version (like Ubuntu does). Very easy to tell that 16.04 is newer than 14.04, and you also know it came out in April 2016 (and <even>.04 is always LTR too!). --strk; _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list [email protected] List info: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer Unsubscribe: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
