  • next version number

    from Raimund Meyer on Nov 19, 2008 02:15 PM
    I have been thinking about calling the next version 1.0 or even 2.0 (to 
    be bold) instead of 0.96 to reflect our recent advancement. What do you 
    think?

    I'm amenable to this, as it has changed greatly since 0.95.  I think  
    both 1.0 and 2.0 are big steps, and have slightly different  
    connotation.  1.0 seems more like a, "Hey Everybody, Xinha is ready"  
    kind of a version, while 2.0 says to me, "This is already stable  
    software we're adjusting our numbering to reflect reality".  I know  
    that's an awful lot to read from a number, but that's kind of how I  
    see it.  I'm not sure which is the correct one to go with, though...

      Hold on, I use 0.95 for all my stuff. I've never even bothered to 
      download the nightly build. Is there THAT much difference?

      While I agree that changing the version to 0.96 fails to convey the significance of the update, I'm a slightly wary of jumping to 1.0, mostly because I think there are still too many known issues with Xinha. But I'm not strongly against moving straight to 1.0, so if others do feel strongly, I'm ok with it. Otherwise I'd say we should stick with 0.96, and then after the release decide on some key things we want to get done and set out on the road to 1.0. 
      
      So, my vote is for either 0.96 or 1.0 (definitely not 2.0).

    OK,  I have received an interesting opinion about the topic in a private 
    mail that makes me withdraw my proposal.  But  still I'd  like  to have  
    something to show this version is next generation. Maybe we could adopt 
    the fashionable practice of having a fancy codename?

      +1 on the codename. Ideas of what it could be? Hercules, perhaps? ;)

        Hercules is good, but a bit strong for the first run, let's keep it for 
        1.0. Sticking with the Greeks, how about Phoenix?

            Sorry, I meant to reply to this over the weekend. I think it's a great  
            choice, so +1 from me as well...
