We could make the distinction in the release notes. It could be a 'PURE BUGFIX RELEASE' or a 'FEATURE FIX RELEASE'. Bugfix releases just fix bugs, that is, wrong behaviour. feature fix releases fix misfeatures, like the case insensitive import issues. The difference between the two should be explained in the paragraph following the header, for *each* release. For example, This is a PURE BUGFIX RELEASE. This means that it only fixes behaviour that was previously giving an error, or providing obviously wrong results. Only code relying out the outcome of obviously incorrect code can be affected. and This is a FEATURE FIX RELEASE This means that the (unexpected) behaviour of one or more features was changed. This is a low-impact change that is unlikely to affect anyone, but it is theoretically possible. See below for a list of possible effects: [ list of mis-feature-fixes and their result. ] -- Thomas Wouters <thomas@xs4all.net> Hi!
