I’m sorry, I don’t understand the new release scheme at all. Both of these are bug fixes on 3.0? What’s the actual difference?
If I just want to run the most stable 3.0, should I run 3.0.1 or 3.1? Will 3.0 gain new features which will not go into 3.1, because that’s a bug fix release on 3.0? So 3.0.x will contain more features than 3.1, as even-numbered releases will be getting new features? Or is 3.0.1 and 3.1 essentially the same thing? Then what’s the role of 3.1? Will there be more than one 3.1? 3.1.1? Or is it 3.3? What’s the content of that? 3.something + patches = 3.what? What does this statement in the referred blog post mean? "Under normal conditions, we will NOT release 3.x.y stability releases for x > 0.” Why are the normal conditions being violated already by releasing 3.1 (since 1 > 0)? /Janne, who is completely confused by all this, and suspects he’s the target of some hideous joke. > On 8 Dec 2015, at 22:26, Jake Luciani <j...@apache.org> wrote: > > > The Cassandra team is pleased to announce the release of Apache Cassandra > version 3.1.
