Well, it looks a bit ugly. In addition, we can't mention "rc" because it
must not appear in the final build.
H Petr,
thank you for your detailled comment. I will have to check all details
later, here some first thoughts:
"rc" should not appear in Help/About", that's an additional info added
to Bugzilla Version like "Master".
Could we use the same scheme also in bugzilla? I mean:
3.5.98.1 (3.6.0alpha1)
3.5.98.1+ (3.6.0alpha1+daily)
3.5.99.1 (3.6.0beta1)
3.6.0.1 (3.6.0rc1)
Yes, a big advantage would be if we coud rework the scheme a little so
that the version number is more or less in accordance with the timeline.
Currently I do not understand "3.5.99.1 (3.6.0beta1)". If that is
Mozilla intention I would prefer something like
3.6.0.00x for alphas
3.6.0.0x0 for betas
3.6.0.100 for RC (example) and/or release
3.6.0.200 for RC (example) and/or release
3.6.0.200 for release(example)
Only a first thought
But generally we can think about making that "alpha" and "beta" also an
"additional information" (No problem if it additinally is in Help/About)
and make a "w.x.yy.zz" Numbering scheme the main information (also
readable for Bug Submission Assistant)
A Very bad thing is that we can not search the Bugzilla Bug picker for a
Version copied from Help about, and so currently something like
"3.5.99.1" might be more fault-prone than a "3.6.0beta1" for transfer /
selection by human beings. But I believe that is a base for further
thougts, and the priority should be a logic Version sheme in "Help
About", Bugzilla pickers will have to follow (somehow).
I think that we do not need to care that much about 3.4 and 3.5 betas;
they are dead anyway.
I would like to have 3.5 and 3.6 in the correct scheme, for 3.3 and 3.4
I currently want to leave the Bugzilla versions more or less as they
are, only stripping the leading "LibO "
Best regards
Rainer
