Re: [ jEdit-devel ] jEdit 4.3pre16 release request

[Dale A. <da...@gr...>]

Let me rephrase my previous response slightly -- why not call it 
"4.3.16".  Swap out that "pre" for a dot, and a lot of people would be 
happier.  I'm not looking to provoke an argument, just that the "pre" 
thing is perhaps one of the weirdest things I've seen in an open source 
project.  By regular naming conventions, this is  probably a 4.706.0 
release or maybe a 5.71.9 release.   I mean, damn, let's move on.
