Ok,<br>
I'll rephase "requirement" to "<i>strongly request</i> the version
of World Wind Web installed on OSGeo-Live be allocated a version
number", for the reasons listed below.<br>
Gabriele, do you think this is achievable?<br>
<br>
I think I'm safe in saying that using version numbers is in line
with best practice software engineering, and one of the indications
of project maturity we wish to encourage.<br>
<br>
Cheers, Cameron<br>

<div>Hi Cameron,
<div> </div>
<div>Given that we include at least another project that
uses "trunk" (for many years now) and not a released
version, we cannot make this a hard requirement in my
opinion</div>

<div>Hi Gabriele,<br>
Thanks for offering to help with reducing packaging
size. That will be helpful.<br>
<br>
I also think it would be very valuable for the
version of the World Wind Web to be installed on
OSGeo-Live to be allocated a version number. There
are many reasons for this, including:<br>
1. People will be able to determine if the version
of World Wind Web they are looking at is the latest
version.<br>
2. People will be able to determine if they should
upgrade to a more recent version (because they are
looking at an older version)<br>
3. Developers and users will be able to align
feature lists and bug reports with specific version
numbers, which will help users determine whether to
upgrade<br>
<br>
I think that defining a package version number
should be a prerequisite for including the package
on OSGeo-Live. The version number could be called
"beta" so long as it is considered "stable" by the
developer and user community.<br>
<br>
Warm regards, Cameron </div>
