Use standard versioning: 1.MAJOR_VERSION.MINOR_VERSION Should mean that after each MINOR_VERSION change I won't loose compatibility of my code, and only known bugs will be fixed or performance improved! Backporting is unnecesary and confusing. Most people will stay on 1.8.6 (including me on my servers) until most of applications will work with 1.9.1. Leave alone 1.8 branch, don't do such stupid things like You want to!! +1 is not enough! +666! ;} -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
