This is what I call the "Paris Syndrome", a mild form of the "Stockholm Syndrome". :-D On a more serious note, I do not insist on the particular use of the x.0 convention. I find it elegant and it gives a nice justification, for example, why gcc stable releases always starts at .1. FWIW gcc started the new numbering scheme at version 5, and it already the seventh release where this numbering schme is used. In Fedora Rawhide (to be Fedora 34) the current version of gcc is 11.0.0. That immediately shows that this is not the stable version. The first stable version will be 11.1. -- José Abílio -- lyx-devel mailing list lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel
