Hello,

> address@hidden - Thu Jun 21 11:42:31 2007]:
> From

> My current official release of Sovix is now 0.0.0.5. I try to make daily

> Should I make:

> 0.[1-9].[1-99].[1-9] or
> 0.[1-99].[1-99].[1-9] releases and 1.0 become the final release after
> that?
> Where can I read how version number for Emacs and GNU works?

Unfortunately, this is only the general email contact for the FSF and
the GNU project and I am unable to answer technical questions. My best
suggestion would be to contact the project mailinglists to see if they
can give you any help. You can find their contact information in their
entry on our Free Software Directory at
http://directory.fsf.org/emacs.html. Also, you might find it helpful to
go to http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo where you will find a
complete list of all the public mailing lists.
Sincerely,
