Re: [python-control-developers] [python-control-announce] Python-control development environment shifted to github

[Richard M. <mu...@cd...>]

That's definitely confusing.  There are two things going on:

* We switched the version numbering scheme from 0.6x to 0.6.m
* We are not being clear about released versions versus development versions

Here's what I think the state of everything is:

* Version 0.6d (= 0.6.4) is the latest stable release.  That always leaves on sourceforge.
* Version 0.6.5 is the current development version, which lives on github.  It is not yet release and may not be stable.

* I have no clue where version 0.6.6 came from that is on PyPI.  James?  Clancy?  Scott?

I'm cc'ing the developers list so that we can fix this.  I'll also generate an issue on github so we can track this.
