There will be no 5.3.1 likely. Numeration scheme is changed from 5.x |
15 |
series: what was middle version is now major, what was minor is now |
16 |
middle. So 5.3 is a patch version of 5.0 the same as 4.9.3 is a |
17 |
patch version of 4.9.0. |

I really dislike this version race started mostly by chrome and |
21 |
systemd, but more and more software strives now for a high |
22 |
increment rate of major version. I wonder what they will do when |
23 |
large numbers like 1000 or 10000 will be reached. |
