Hello, Tech-Talkers!
Is EPICS 7.0.8 a developer release that should not be used in
production?
I ask because at
https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://epics.anl.gov/base/index.php__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!ZTt7qznz4xlCwL0cLoMwgMnloSX9BTr-0EiUhx6uKrAeLVJE-vulKmvU6Lz7yyvTTtamLbmUGhW-AjdXhDOBZg$
it says in the "Versions and Numbering" section:
The EPICS Version numbering system has evolved over the years so older
version numbers may not mean quite the same thing as more recent ones,
but any version with a zero component in the number such as 3.15.0.1
was a developer release and should not be used for production systems.
The first release in the 3.15 series that qualified for production use
was version 3.15.1.
Since EPICS 7.0.8 has a zero component, does that mean it is a developer
release that should not be used in production? Or is the wording of
the above not quite right, and what it really means is that there can
be a zero component in the series name (e.g., "7.0"), and only if
there's a zero component outside of the series name in the version
(e.g., "7.0.0.1") is it a developer release?
Thanks!
Lewis
