Help understanding versions

 

Hi,

I'm quite new to the developers list, I'd like to understand version numbers.

Now, I have installed 201611061918+7343~55~ubuntu14.04.1 nightly build and stable 4.0.4+e1-6308~48~ubuntu14.04.1

With the stable 6308 version I cannot open pcbnew files generated with the 7343 version.

Maybe the 7 in 7343 means a major change not backwards compatible with 6xxx versions?

Of course, no issues in openning "stable" files with the nightly build version.

Thanks!

Pedro.
