versions numbering confusion - regarding development & stable versions

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi list,

I have a very basic query regarding the kernel versioning. I read that
the even numbered versions (like 2.6.x) are stable versions, where as
odd numbered versions (like 2.5.x) are development versions.

I now see only 2.6.x versions coming out (on kernel.org). I don't see
any development version 2.7.x coming out.

Is currently all the development going on directly in the 2.6.x series
and hence no 2.7.x series?

Thanks,

Dan
