That's fine. I did not mean to argue for a deviation from the naming scheme. I was mainly trying to be explicit that we're working on a small release, and suggesting the contents of that release. We should name it whatever makes sense. The problem, as I saw it, is that some people think we're failing to work on a 5.0 release when we're actually working on a smaller release that does not yet have a wiki page. -Rob > It was communicated and is well known by the users, and we should > demonstrate reliableness. > > I don`t like a x.y.5 or higher version for AOO.
