[OPEN-ILS-DEV] After 2.2 naming / schedule

[Thomas Berezansky]

We should have already been at 3.0 or later when we stopped supporting  
PostgreSQL 8.4, if I am not mistaken.

I vote for 3.0 or 12.09. The latter would be "throw out the versioning  
info and replace it with date-based".

As a basis for "3.0" on the old system of versioning I put forward my  
new_xulrunner branch as a significant enough change, pulling us from  
the 1.9ish/3.6 series xulrunner to.....I dunno, what are they up to  
now? 12?

> 2. Do we return to the originally proposed March/September release schedule?
>
> My impression is there's a general consensus to do this.  It would

> Once we have these questions answered, we can start outlining a schedule.
