What is the next version

[eileenmcnaughton]

@mattwire I was looking at the fact there are quite a few unreleased commits here & that they (among other things) make tests pass - but then when I thought about what version would need to be tagged I realised it either needs to be 3.0 - which implies a major version change - or a new naming convention - ie. 2.9.1

I have a feeling the handling for switching might not always see 2.9.1 as 'higher' than 2.9 - but that is just a vague 'haven't I seen this before niggle'

I probably would go to 3.0.0 with the 'major change' being that the versioning system has changed

What would be wrong with 2.10?

[totten]

(I have no objection X.Y.Z in general - that's fine numbering. It just seems 2.10 is the natural progression, based on the numbering so far in this repo.)

[eileenmcnaughton]

oh right - I suppose so

[mattwire]

Yes, it would be 2.10. I'm generally happy to tag a release once someone provides feedback on the latest nightly to say it's all working ok

I can confirm that I'm running 2.9 with PR #512 and #502 applied for 3 months and all is working nice.

This it can be closed.
