Before branching AS5 (Branch_5_0) I was wondering what would most people would prefer/think about the next minor JBossAS release. - Continue with the even release number legacy, i.e. 5.2.0 - Scrap the legacy numbering, i.e. go for 5.1.0 Cheers /Dimitris PS AFAIR, the original idea was that odd minor numbers (e.g. 5.1) would indicate development releases, while even numbers (5.2) stable production releases. This didn't worked out quite well and the code always targeted the next production release with Betas/RCs used for pre-production releases. Who would want to test drive a purely development release, anyway? _______________________________________________ jboss-development mailing list jboss-development(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/jboss-development

Aren't they all development releases now you've got the EAP's ;) Development releases would be nice if you wanted to include preview technology that may in fact not make it into the next stable release. --Aaron On 03/12/2008, at 10:07 PM, Bela Ban wrote: > Go for 5.1 > > Dimitris Andreadis wrote: >> Before branching AS5 (Branch_5_0) I was wondering what would most >> people would prefer/think about the next minor JBossAS release. >> >> - Continue with the even release number legacy, i.e. 5.2.0 >> >> - Scrap the legacy numbering, i.e. go for 5.1.0 >> >> Cheers >> /Dimitris >> >> PS >> AFAIR, the original idea was that odd minor numbers (e.g. 5.1) >> would indicate development releases, while even numbers (5.2) >> stable production releases.
