I suppose I'm repeating myself, but so be it. For that kind of situation, I think it's helpful for everyone to communicate stability by releasing 1.0, and (depending on your numbering philosophy) bug fixes with 1.0.x, significant feature additions with 1.x, and (especially incompatible) API changes with 2.0. Or some such. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group. To post to this group, send email to web...@googlegroups.com.
