Re: [Proftpd-user] Thoughts on using semver for future version labels?

My vote would be to drop the RC and use incrementing numbering. If you look
at the master commit branch the amount of work/updates/fixes/patches occurs
with great frequency. It will require thinking about how your branches are
working though, so that might be the biggest change in a switch.
