Until BIND 9.12, new feature development releases were tagged
|
|
as "alpha" and "beta", leading up to the first stable release
|
|
for a given development branch, which always ended in ".0".
|
|
More recently, BIND adopted the "odd-unstable/even-stable"
|
|
release numbering convention. There will be no "alpha" or "beta"
|
|
releases in the 9.15 branch, only increasing version numbers.
|
|
So, for example, what would previously have been called 9.15.0a1,
|
|
9.15.0a2, 9.15.0b1, and so on, will instead be called 9.15.0,
|
|
9.15.1, 9.15.2, etc.
|
|

<para>
|
|
The first stable release from this development branch will be
|
|
renamed as 9.16.0. Thereafter, maintenance releases will continue
|
|
on the 9.16 branch, while unstable feature development proceeds in
|
|
9.17.
