Hi,

I think this topic is more about a stable release than version numbering 
itself. For the SVN/bleeding edge branch, the current versioning scheme 
seems adequate. But we should consider creating a stable release/branch 
for all those out there who don't like to use the bleeding edge svn (end 
users, distributions etc.). For that stable release, we might want a 
release plan, containing:

- which features should be included
- which bugs need to be fixed
- a testing period
- a translation period
- maybe a timeline

We shouldn't overdo this though, since we have limited and fluctuating 
manpower to implement this plan anyways... The trackers on 
sourceforge.net could become handy for some of these items. Once we have 
a stable release, it should get a number like Milan suggested.

So, my question would be: What is the current plan regarding a stable 
release? Who is in charge of it?

Best regards
Jonas.
