Dear gpm README reader, this letter is to you, as I have to tell you about my idea of versioning of gpm. Traditionally, there were 1.19.x releases. That was, before the gpm source code and I met. After that, there was 1.20.x, indicating a new maintainer, but continuing with the old naming versioning. Today, on the 19th of February 2008, I decided to give gpm a real chance of getting a "second life" under the name of "gpm2" (as described in README.gpm2). It seems that the best effort for creating gpm2 is to rewrite everything, but to migrate the logic from the old code (as in: how to handle the individual mouse). So, how does that relate to the versions of gpm? Let us have a look at it: 1.19.x: old versions, not continued 1.20.x: current stable versions: no new features. 1.99.x: versions that move to 2.x, but contain much 1.20.x code. includes new features. 2.0.x: future stable versions 2.1.x: future testing versions Perhaps you have some comments to tell me? If so, just drop me a letter to nico-gpm-versions at schottelius.org. Yours, Nico
