Naming: 

How many versions?

At any given time there will be 2 active versions:

  • STABLE/CERTIFIED VERSION:

    • One version per Q

    • Next stable version will be 1.2.0 which will be released on February 15, 2019.

    • Once released this version will only include new corrective patches (not evolutionary), which will generate versions 1.2.1,....

    • Starting in Q1 2019 the stable versions will have a "rememberable" name.

      • Alphabetical criteria will be followed (first version starts with A).

      • It has been chosen by vote to use 8-bit videogames.

    • Naming:

      • If it is the first version of the year first digit is incremented (in 2020 we will start with 2.0.0).

      • For the rest of the Qs of the year, the second digit is incremented.

  • DEVELOPMENT VERSION

    • Once a version is stabilized, the development version appears. If the stable version is 1.2.0, the development version would start with 1.3.0.

    • This version includes:

      • All the fixes of the stable version

      • Identified improvements

      • New Features.

    • Each new patch or enhancement introduced will generate a change in the third digit of the version (1.3.1, 1.3.2, ...).

    • Each new feature will generate a change in the second digit of the version (1.4.0).

    • These versions are not named until one becomes a stable version.

¿Which version to use?

  • From Platform it is recommended to use the stable version.

  • If a project/product requires new features and cannot wait for the next Q release, a development version can be installed.

  • This development version is also supported by the Platform team but it should be assumed that it will be more unstable and updates will be required often.
