Firefox is doing the same: 64.0.2. And I can remember, that they have FireFox 
64.0 and not 64: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/64.0/releasenotes/

Betreff: AW: Apache NetBeans 11 or 11.0 ?

Hey Neil,

There was no 8, there was 8.0 and it was not a minor, it was the major release 
after 7.3. 8.1 was minor but still with new features + bug fixes etc. So no 
patch. 8.2 had 2 patches which were 8.2 patch 1 and 8.2 patch 2.

I don’t remember which other software does this but if patch means 8.2.1 and 
8.2.2 Im more welcome because everyone should know about the versioning in 
Software. 10 is 10.0 but 10 is not 10.1 and not 10 patch 1. Maybe it could be 
10.1 patch 1 or 10.1.1 if we are only talking About bug fixes.

Will point a link to wiki, for versioning here: 
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Versionsnummer (german version).
And Chrome also have this: 71.0.3578.98

So if we will have critical bug fixes for NB 10, it will be 10.0.1 IMHO.


Cheers

Chris

In which case you missed the point I was trying to make. There *was* a
reason! 8.0, 8.1 and 8.2 were hardly minor - the 8 just referred to Java 8.
There was a discussion about moving away from sync with Java versions and
just incrementing the number for every release (Firefox, Chrome, JDK
style). That was the reason for dropping the zero, because 10.1 could also
have just been NB10 patch 1.

Now whether everyone is on the same page about that versioning scheme is
another matter. Don't think you can answer this thread without being sure
of that. Maybe a vote is required?

Either seems fine to me, as long as we can all have the same answer to
explain it when asked! ;-)

Best wishes,

Neil
