Hi Marcelo, Last summer, BMC Remedy was supposed to release version 8 which would have been a new release. However, they decided to change their numbering conventions and released what would have been version 8 as 7.6.03 instead. I was on a webinar with them regarding the new release and they made that announcement. I have the details of what their new numbering convention is supposed to indicate in some notes that I have yet to locate, but as soon as I do, I will share. In the meantime, there are several BMC people on this listserv that may be able to enlighten us all...

Assuming that a version change is a major change to the application... but what does it entail? What is considered a release change (i.e. going from 7.5.03 to 7.6.00)? I'm currently trying to convince my management upgrade to version 7.6.0x ....but why? Why go to 7.6.0x instead of 7.5.0x? I may also add that I'm doing an analysis of all the "what's new" documentation.. Hopefully someone can shed some light on how it is decided to change the release numbering instead of the maintenance release number..
