A lot of programs do that - it's quite common amongst Linux software (the kernel itself uses it), and GNOME things in particular do it. If you're fortunate, the program in question will have a Web page describing its versioning scheme. Otherwise, you can frequently look at their description of downloading stable vs. development releases to find out. And if all else fails, poke around. But most GNOME software, including GTK+ and other base libraries for it, uses that scheme. - Michael _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
