Naming convention for unstable releases
Hi there,
everybody over here knows that odd-numbered releases are unstable, taken
from trunk.
However, apparently not all of our users know that.
Should we consider to label them accordingly in the future? Such as
1.9.0-EXPERIMENTAL
instead of
1.9.0
?
Best regards, Julian
(cc'ing jackrabbit-dev because we'd want to be consistent)

+1 for Robert's points therefore is a +0 for me about the name change.

I'm +0 on such a change as I would expect users to actually read the
fine web pages at [1].
If we go through with this, I'd to with something less scary that
experimental. Maybe '-dev' or '-unstable'?

I'm +0 on such a change as I would expect users to actually read the
fine web pages at [1].
If we go through with this, I'd to with something less scary that
experimental. Maybe '-dev' or '-unstable'?

+1 for any qualifier indicating "unstable" releases.
