> Thinking on this further, is it correct to say that a nightly build from the master branch is considered a 0.12.1 SNAPSHOT? For the patch release, I had expected we might cherry-pick certain commits and apply them on top of the 0.12.0 release (though I’m not entirely sure if that’s the case or not so please don’t quote me on that - just an assumption on my part). > Going forward, we would probably have to maintain the **current** development version in a `version.txt` file. This is bumped to the next version whenever a release was done. So after a **0.12.1** release we would bump the version in `version.txt` to either **0.12.2** or **0.13.0** (whatever the next version would be). Therefore, we would always publish snapshots with the current development version > If we don’t always build the next release (specifically point releases) from master, this might confuse some users, particularly those users who integrate Iceberg into their company’s systems and might try out SNAPSHOT releases before a RC is published. I'm not entirely sure I can follow here. The latest SNAPSHOT release is whatever is there on `master` so people have a chance of trying to prepare integration much earlier into their systems. I think this is a big plus and we already had quite a lot occassions where we wished that there would be snapshots of the current version that's being developed :) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
