Talk:Channel and Version Requirements

Adding a fifth number to versions

I think this all makes sense except for this part:

Choose a version number
   * The version number is in the form Major.Minor.Patch.Build
   * The version number can be any four numbers
   * We recommend using the Major, Minor, and Patch numbers from the most recently merged Linden Lab source code.
   * We recommend using a Build number >= 100 to indicate a non Linden Lab version.

I think that the versions should be 5 numbers, since there have been occasions where multiple versions of Major.Minor.Patch have been released by Linden Lab. For example (from Source_downloads):

• ver 1.18.2.1
• ver 1.18.2.0

• ver 1.14.0.1
• ver 1.14.0.0

So, my proposal would be that the number be in the form Major.Minor.Patch.Build.3rdPartyNumber. -- —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Gibson Willis
