This is correct, but I'm afraid you are missing the point here.IceSoft wrote:The version number is not really important.Marco2007 wrote:Hi,
Does this mean, that there will be no 4.21 or 4.22 (like 4.02) -> Next version with all the fixed bugs will be 4.30? Fred fixed a lot these days...Fred wrote:We won't publish a new minor version....All the fixes will be available in the next version

By releasing minor versions that fix known bugs (without introducing new features), probably each minor version will be more bug-free than the previous one, and so stability will continuously increase. Major versions normally are introducing new features. Of course they will fix known bugs, too. But there is a good chance that they will introduce new bugs along with the new features. So not releasing minor bug-fix versions is somewhat unusual IMHO, and not a good idea from the point of view of the PureBasic user.
