Re: [birt-dev] Creating a new release

[Wayne Beaton <wayne.beaton@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There's no rule that says version numbers need to be in strict sequence.

We could number the first reboot release as 4.20 and then follow up with 4.23 nine months later (for example). A statement on the download page that indicates that release numbers are aligned with the Eclipse Platform release numbers (or something to that effect) should alleviate any "where is version XX?" type questions.

Aligning the release number with the platform may be perceived as a bold "we're back" statement. Other than that, however, I have no strong opinion on the matter.

This implies that we have to release every three months. I'm afraid that releasing 4x yearly might be too ambitious.
