I actually think it's a brilliant idea to "skip" 3.0 and call it 4.0. As Martin said, the potential for confusion is very high. A 4.0 would not only steer around confusing Zope3 3.x and Zope2 3.x, it would also make it easier to move back to the simple "Zope" moniker without any qualifying number tacked on. People who only look at version numbers would now choose Zope 4.0 instead of falling into the "unmaintained" Zope3 trap. jens _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - [email protected] https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
