aahz@pobox.com (Aahz Maruch): > My preference would be that 2.1.2p is a branch from 2.1.1. That could be a rather confusing numbering system. Also, once there has been a patch release, does that mean that the previous sequence of bugfix-only releases is then closed off? Even a minor feature addition has the potential to introduce new bugs. Some people may not want to take even that small risk, but still want to keep up with bug fixes, so there may be a demand for a further bugfix release to 2.1.1 after 2.1.2p is released. How would such a release be numbered? Seems to me that if you're going to have minor feature releases at all, you need a four-level numbering system: W.X.Y.Z, where Y is the minor feature release number and Z the bugfix release number.
