Re: Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Calendar-0.2 (stable) Released.

1.0+ shouldn't be required for stable releases, I am personally very carefull with 1.0 releases, they indicate a feature complete and stable software with documentation (at least that is what ppl exspect, in business software that can be bought in the store is 1.0). SmartIRC is stable and version number is currently 0.5.5, I think it reached the stable state since 0.5.0. I will go more forwards 1.0 but my class is not feature complete, at least for my plans. The class though is stable and can be used on productive systems, also no BC breakages etc... Sometimes I feel that some ppl choose 1.0 way too fast, or bump with every little change/release the minor number... it reaches 1.0 before anything is stable or feature complete. Maybe using version numbers rules be added to PEAR CS. I could write a draft for that...
