If it comes down to marketing and a reasonable version number scheme (i.e. one that correlates with the major feature development), why not skip 1.0 altogether. v1.0 has that magical, shining appearance of bugfree, feature complete etc. something the current version definitely is not (given the other testing thread). So my proposal is to go back over the changelog, count the biggest improvements and call it v4.0 or v5.3. Together with some explaining notes in the distro and on the website this should not raise the excitement (which IMO backfires at us ATM) that a silent 1.0 is going to produce. OTOH the version number is the most uninteresting thing for me in FG. The versions important to me are usually called HEAD... :P Thomas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
