Hi Jacques,
it sounds like a good idea; I would like to suppress the mention to Ubuntu and
simply describe the naming convention we use.
Yes sure, it's ok with me
Thanks
Jacques
Kind regards,
Jacopo

Hi Jacopo,
Maybe we could add an explanation on top of the download page, to make things more clear. From
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBADMIN/Release+Plan#ReleasePlan-GeneralReleasePolicies
We could say
<<Release branches are created once per year, so far in April . We use the same release numbering scheme than Ubuntu (for
instance, 9.4 means released in 2009.April).>>

BTW...
What don't you like in the release name convention? The Ubuntu way?
It is not a big deal but, since we have very few releases an old traditional
sequence would have worked fine imo.
Now we have 09.04 but people are confused because they may think there is also a 09.03 or it is not obvious that 09.04 is
greater than 4.
And last point, it is not that clear that 09.04 means 2009.04...
But at this point it is fine and imo having one convention and sticking to it
is much better than changing it.
