As far as I see (and apparently Jim, too, since he agreed to use this policy) it's the best compromise between - making sure that nobody creates releases from the trunk (hence the dev marker) - giving development eggs from the trunk or a release branch a *meaningful* revision number (hence the version bump you find so silly) Naturally I'm willing to listen to alternative suggestions. ___ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

Thanks. I just reread Jim's edict E-mail about the topic and noticed that I indeed missed the dev postfix. That changes nothing about the fact that I still think this is totally silly. I'll agree -- I don't want the trunk to have *any* version number in it, because I don't want anyone to even think about doing a release from the trunk. It wouldn't need changing, either. I'd like that too, but it breaks the expectations you'd have about the development egg that's defined by a trunk checkout. It needs a meaningful version number to satisfy version constraints like z3c.foopkg=1.3. ___ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
