Another version-number issue is the persistence of 'dev' versions -- since time immemorial (smile) -- , where other projects change numbers. On Gentoo at least, this results in the latest version being way out-of-date, as they don't treat 'dev' versions as full-scale releases, which they are, so that I continue to have to install them myself in /usr/local . Is there any problem with calling each new version from now on '2.8.7', '2.8.8', '2.8.9' etc (yes, '2.8.100' if it gets that far) ? -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto _______________________________________________ Lynx-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lynx-dev
