Redfoot Version Conventions

Redfoot version numbers are based on the system used by the Linux kernel, where there are typically two active branches at any one time, a stable one and a development one. Most people will want to use a stable release (especially for production). Many development releases will be of alpha quality.

Redfoot version numbers come in three forms:

Redfoot X.EVEN.Y

A stable release. e.g. Redfoot 1.0.3

Redfoot X.ODD.Y

A development release. e.g. Redfoot 1.1.7

Redfoot X.ODD.99-preY

A development release that is a candidate to become a stable release. eg Redfoot 1.1.99-pre2
