Several users have proposed that SQLite adopt a new version numbering
scheme. The proposed change is currently uploaded on the "draft"
website:
https://www.sqlite.org/draft/versionnumbers.html
https://www.sqlite.org/draft/releaselog/3_9_0.html
https://www.sqlite.org/draft/
If accepted, the new policy will cause the next release to be 3.9.0
instead of 3.8.12. And the second number in the version will be
increased much more aggressively in future releases.
Your feedback on the proposed policy change is appreciated. We will
delay the next release until there is a semblance of consensus on the
new policy.
