Major version number changes often are taken to mean that: - this release is incompatible with the last (new db schema, new APIs?) - something's changed that should make everyone should reconsider any product decisions for or against. Even if you don't mean anything by the number change, a lot of people are going to assume you mean this. So you should think carefully before doing this. A major version change requires at the very least lots of documentation, marketing, blog posts, etc. -- Neil Kandalgaonkar ( ) <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
