How do 1.0 and 1.0.0 differ? The way I've done things in the past, the first major release is called 1.0.0, the first patch release 1.0.1, etc. Then, when I say "1.0", what I really mean is "the latest code in the 1.0 branch, whatever that is right now".
When we did Kodo releases in the past, we tried hard to not do new feature development in a maintenance branch. So, following that methodology, once we released 1.0.0, we would make a 1.0 branch, which would periodically have tags on it when we release 1.0.1 etc. As soon as 1.0 was out, all the interesting new cool stuff would then go into the mainline, which would be 1.1.0-SNAPSHOT. (Unless, of course, we had already cut a branch for 1.1 also, in which case the mainline would be 1.2.0-SNAPSHOT, etc.) -Patrick On 5/23/07, Craig L Russell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
-1 I like the idea of having our first release out of the incubator be 1.0. Let's drop the trailing .0 and reserve the third digit for patch releases. This brings up the issue of release naming which we've deferred until now. I think we need to decide what we call releases and at what level we support backward compatibility. I'll just emphasize my earlier comments about going through the open JIRA issues and really making sure that we'll address the major functionality, performance, and usability deficiencies. So this will affect the schedule but not the naming of the release.
