Once we're stable it might happen more systematically. For sure +% I don't want to end up with these redicoulous 0.99999999 kind of numbers. +% +% We started with 2.00.0 and kept that number till November 2019, after Alan +% Braslau and I did the initial beta release at April 1, 2019. After more than +% a year working on the code base after the \CONTEXT\ 2019 meeting a state was +% reached where nothing fundamental got added for a while. When \LUATEX\ needs +% a patch, I check the \LUAMETATEX\ code base as the same patch might be needed +% there. On the other hand, we don't need a strict compatibility, so some +% patched in \LUATEX\ are not applied here. +% +% In November 2019 I started wondering if we should bump the number, just for +% the sake of showing that there's still some progress. So I decided to bump to +% 2.01.0 then. Just as a reminder for myself: it was the day when I watched +% Jacob Collier perform Lua (feat. MARO) live on YouTube (of course that is not +% about the language at all, but still a nice coincidence). |
