Description

We need some sort of versioning scheme for Orfox... do we use 38, or reset it to 1.0?

History

#1 Updated by amoghbl1 over 2 years ago

With the regular mozilla convention, 38.0 is good, in order to know what esr it was built on.
I understand the problem that it's causing though, I think that Orfox itself should be called 0.0.x, followed by esr-38.0 .
With the new iteration x would be for the smallest iterations we release every time I trigger a jenkins build? And 0.1, 0.2 so on would be things we release into beta? And well, version 1.0 would be for the RC?

This is some custom versioning that I've just come up with, I don't know to what extent this would be good, need more view points on this.

Sure, that is just the version that was tagged in the release we built upon. We need to move the version forward for users to understand what is happening.

0.0.1-esr-38.0 ? How does Tor Browser handle this?

Perhaps we should keep 38.0-esr-Orfox-0.0.1 or something, since we already have 38.0 as the leading value now.

We can run it by people briefly, but let's get it done in the next few days.
