3.1 cannot follow 3.9. 3.9 is a larger number than 3.1. I hope you meant, 3.9.1 ...3.9.2 etc. or 3.91 .. 3.92 .. 3.92.01 ... 3.92.05 ... 3.93 etc. > As nobody declared the 3.5 release to be 3.50, there is no reason that > I can see to come out with 3.51. LOL. 3.5 = 3.50 = 3.500 = 3.5000 = 3.500000000000 Usually, we drop the zeros since they don't provide any added meaning as such and after-all, they're the same. This is as semantic a criticism as they come. You've just defined the meaning of semantic. > But having said all that, let's face the facts. There are many > different systems of version numbering.
