This is missing the point: the changelog section contains the previous releases. There are not two consecutive releases in there. I don't even know how the installer would handle that. It probably would throw a fit. > I did a mistake with the 0.2.0 (in fact I didn't because I asked the > Klaus before the commit, but let's say it was my mistake) > Lukas suggested a fix (which was needed for the docs/examples/ folder > location) > and I released again. I really disagree with the "release notes only for a given release" business. If I release a series of betas before going stable, should the stable release mention the changes? Absolutely! Because the stable users won't have any idea of which changes were made. For users installing all the betas, that should not be a problem. > I am fine to play with the rules, and I have been extremely cordial to > everyone but don't blame me if there are several solutions to the same > problem. Yes, I know you have. And I guess it was my fault that I didn't catch the state problem. By the way, the state in the name must also be reflected in the state tag. So I'm not exactly sure what's being complained about. Klaus
