<div dir="ltr">Hi <span class="" id=":2ht.1" tabindex="-1" style="background:yellow">Tatsuo</span><div><br></div><div>The source code development policy statement looks good, I have tried to rephrase the "pgpool-II version policy" section to make it more clear. Please find below the rephrased version of the section if you think it is appropriate.</div><div><br></div><div><p style="margin:0.4em 0px 0.5em;line-height:19.2000007629395px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:sans-serif;font-size:12.8000001907349px">--quote--</p><p style="margin:0.4em 0px 0.5em;line-height:19.2000007629395px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:sans-serif;font-size:12.8000001907349px">We release "major version" each year, which is mostly backward compatible with the previous release, Exceptions to this rule are listed in the release notes when sometimes some existing feature is dropped, depreciated or a change that brings certain incompatibilities with the older versions. The versions are numbered in the form of A.B.C where A.B is the major version number while C represents the minor version of a release. Currently pgpool-II versions are represented by A == 3 i.e 3.B.C where 3.B represents the major version number, So current releases of pgpool-II is also sometimes referred as <span style="font-size:12.8000001907349px;line-height:19.2000007629395px">"3</span><span style="font-size:12.8000001907349px;line-height:19.2000007629395px">. </span><span style="font-size:12.8000001907349px;line-height:19.2000007629395px">X series".</span></p><p style="margin:0.4em 0px 0.5em;line-height:19.2000007629395px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:sans-serif;font-size:12.8000001907349px">To absolutely identify version number, specifying the "minor version number (part C of A.B.C version string)" is important. This minor version is incremented for the bug fix release, which is roughly released every month. For example pgpool-II 3.5.0 represents the first release of pgpool-II 3.5 series and 3.5.1 is the second minor (bug fix) release of the same. Unlike major versions the new minor release is guaranteed to be 100% backward compatible with the previous minor release.</p></div><div>--unquote--</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div>Best regards</div><div>Muhammad <span class="" id=":2ht.2" tabindex="-1" style="background:yellow">Usama</span> </div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Jul 5, 2015 at 2:03 PM, Tatsuo Ishii <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ishii@postgresql.org" target="_blank">ishii@postgresql.org</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I have modified<br>
