Re: [Tuxnes-devel] 0.75 Stable CVS help wanted.

[Mike M. <che...@ya...>]

That's what I was trying to think of.  Should the next version(current
head) be 2.x or 1.x?  1.x signefies a stable version dose it not?

Fixing these bugs will requier lots of reading throught to find why it was
changed/disabeled.  In the mean time I realy think the current 0.x code
should be our stable flag ship for releases in the file section.

As for 0.x branch can continue, I'l tag it 0.x.1 as I did some bugfixing
too it.  Then I'l start on 0.x+1 and later release that as 0.x+1.0, just
like Jason said.
