Hello Hedley,

We do have alphas betas and rvs for both branches. Just sayin'.

Best,

Charles.

But even such a non-dev as I am can understand alpha, beta, unstable,
stable, and final release, simply because all other open source
projects
except LibreOffice use them consistently. So why fix what ain't broke?

The dev team have taken on themselves the burden of explaining a new
and
baffling terminology which substitutes new words for old meanings. Do
reduce your workload by just reverting to the tried, true, and
understood.

And leave Tom alone. He mightn't have the answer to every problem (who
does?) but at least he points you in the right direction.

Hedley

Hi Florian,

I do like "stable" and "old stable" - because that's the situation.

IMO it is a good approach to give the new naming a fair change _and_
proper explanation. Discussing the zillion other options - what has
been
done before - doesn't help with that
I hope you understand this.
