There is a difference between "marketing number" and "technological number". The principles of semantic versioning only apply to "technological numbering". We adhere to semantic versioning when versining individual modules. The "marketing number" for the whole NetBeans IDE has nothing to do with that and can be anything. Don't even try to find some logic in that. It is driven by marketing ideas which are creative, but not really scientific. -jt Btw. once there was a discussion about BOM https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/ r553224d33753a475334da864f24a956a41cc8c8ac75159d6129e4033%40%3Cdev.netbeans. apache.org%3E[1] it would be great to have it one day as it nicely balances the "marketing uber number" with "technological numbers" of individual modules. -------- [1] https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/ r553224d33753a475334da864f24a956a41cc8c8ac75159d6129e4033%40%3Cdev.netbeans. apache.org%3E
