How old is emacs? How big is the percentage of all open source projects with such a high version number? Heck, how big is the percentage with a version number above 1.0? =) >and Windows can be on 2000, That doesn't count, 1) it's a year, 2) it's marketing speak, 3) it's not open source. >I don't see any problem with this :) Yes, it's possible. But when I add the probability of Fink still being around, plus the probabilty gtk/glib/etc. reaching version 20.0, plus the probability of Fink having to support any apps requiring backward compatibilty to glib 2.0 package at that time, I get a number that's so small that I get an underflow when using double precision =) Anyway, even if it *did* reach version 20, how would glib20 collide with glib2 ???
