I suggest that we come up with a concept of designating "stable
versions" (or "tested versions") for the trunk and put them on the
homepage. A stable version is one with no or only minor regressions,
and/or a version that committers have found to be "good". This would be
for users of the 2.0 version who don't want to read every discussion,
and also as a hint for unhappy 1.8 users.
I suspect that other open source projects do also have rules to
designate stable versions, but I didn't look at them.
Proposed rules:
- any committer can designate any version that is older than 24 hours as
stable
- any committer can veto any version as unstable
- any version that has only positive votes is mentioned on
https://pdfbox.apache.org/downloads.html#scm
- there should be up to three versions there
