Using straight major.minor.micro is actually a good idea too. Maybe we should do that. The only difference with my scheme is that my scheme assumes that individual releases in a devel series all add new interfaces whereas using major.minor.micro directly assumes that no point releases adds new interfaces (stable or not). Both assumptions are wrong, but mine is on the safe side. The only reason I like your proposal is that I don't think anyone makes any assumption about minor .so version anyway... behdad > libtool very sensibly only really documents -version-info because, in > this one instance, they chose to implement something so utterly > orthogonal to any library versioning scheme ever seen in the wild as to > be unusable, instead of their usual strategy of implementing something > so lowest-common-denominator as to be unusable. > > - ajax _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
