[Vtigercrm-developers] Changing to patch mode of release

[richie]

Hello!

I would like to initiate the discussion on providing patch mode of 
release post the 5.0.3.

Reason for patch mode of release post 5.0.3:-

Much easier format of release.
Less pressure on team.
Easy to identify the breakage segment(patch version that is)
Easier to rollback the patch if need be (ie we can always say that pl. 
do not use the patch and give a better one if need be. It is much easier 
to do).

I know that we have had a lot of debate about the release versionings 
and have arrived at the current one. But owing to the reasons mentioned 
above, I would like to have the convention flexible enough to allow 
patch releases too.

For this to happen, what all are the areas that ought to be taken into 
consideration.

Fathi, Jeff ...?
