Doesn't it make more since to release a version where one of the numbers is a bugfix number?
ex currently we have: [ Huge.Major.Minor ] and then when bugs are fixed they are: [ Huge.Major.Minor pl Bugfix ] Hardly ever is a version released without a bugfix of some sort. I have seen the argument that we should follow: [ Major.Minor.Bug ]. Which i think is do-able if you alow minor to be larger than 1 digit. ex PHP 5.12.1. If this is not desired it could follow a 4 digit numbering system (Which is pseudo what we have today) except that release version would always include the pl number. ex: 4.2.1.RC1 bugs fixed 4.2.1.RC2 bugs fixed / release 4.2.1.0 Then bugs are fixed 4.2.1.1 More bugs are fixed 4.2.1.2 Opinions? -Jason On Thu, 2002-03-14 at 08:15, Zeev Suraski wrote: > zeev Thu Mar 14 09:15:26 2002 EDT > > Modified files: > /php4 configure.in > /php4/main php_version.h > Log: > Good suggestion, but I'm not sure we want to start receiving bug > reports with that version > > > Index: php4/configure.in > diff -u php4/configure.in:1.317 php4/configure.in:1.318 > --- php4/configure.in:1.317 Thu Mar 14 09:00:03 2002 > +++ php4/configure.in Thu Mar 14 09:15:24 2002 > @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ > -dnl ## $Id: configure.in,v 1.317 2002/03/14 14:00:03 sterling Exp $ -*- sh -*- > +dnl ## $Id: configure.in,v 1.318 2002/03/14 14:15:24 zeev Exp $ -*- sh -*- > dnl ## Process this file with autoconf to produce a configure script. > > divert(1) > @@ -37,7 +37,7 @@ > AC_CANONICAL_HOST > AC_CONFIG_HEADER(main/php_config.h) > > -VERSION="4.STFU" > +VERSION="4.2.1-dev" > > dnl Define where extension directories are located in the configure context > AC_DEFUN(PHP_EXT_BUILDDIR,[ext/$1])dnl > Index: php4/main/php_version.h > diff -u php4/main/php_version.h:1.57 php4/main/php_version.h:1.58 > --- php4/main/php_version.h:1.57 Thu Mar 14 09:00:04 2002 > +++ php4/main/php_version.h Thu Mar 14 09:15:26 2002 > @@ -1,3 +1,3 @@ > /* automatically generated by configure */ > /* edit configure.in to change version number */ > -#define PHP_VERSION "4.STFU" > +#define PHP_VERSION "4.2.1-dev" > > > > -- > PHP CVS Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
