Hello,
Thanks for your mesage.
Independently of the version numbering the main interesting information is
about the frequency of the releases, which is a good thing and shows the future
investment of the 3DS Scilab team. I just hope that users will get used to
trash their current version of
Dear Stéphane,
I really appreciate you being so compassionate about making Scilab the best it
can be.
There is no doubt that the points you make are absolutely valid, and I hope

the project in the future.
Merci,
Also, as has been already mentioned, the year version may or may not imply an

I am positive to a 6-month release schedule. I am also a bit surprised,
since last Scilab release was almost two years ago and I'm wondering how

Stephane,
I have two concerns regarding the announcements. First, it may be confusing
since users are accustomed to the legacy way of numbering versions, which is
also the system most software packages use. The chaotic way Windows has
numbered its versions (W 3.1, W 95/98, W 2000, Vista, W
Hello,
Please allow me to react to these answers as I feel also very concerned with
this potential evolution. The year-base major number won't ease a better
