Current Page: NeXtMidas Training Common Midas Concepts Version Numbering Version Numbers
| Version Numbers Version numbers are three digit numbers in the form `x.y.z`: Major Version (First Digit) This number is incremented only after a major change to the NeXtMidas baseline. Minor Version (Second Digit) Identifies a release series. Indicates type of release: Even Value - Indicates a stable series. Odd Value - Indicates a beta series. Update (Third Digit) For stable releases this is used to identify subsequent "bug fix releases" made to patch bugs found in the stable release. Only low-risk bug fixes are included in a "bug fix release." "High-risk" bug fixes need to be done in a beta release to allow adequate testing. No new features are added in a "bug fix release." Periodic releases of beta releases are made, for each release the update is increased by one. Updates to a beta series may include bug fixes and enhancements. Both beta and stable releases will include updated documentation (where appropriate).
