It's an amusing solution, but if this ends up being anything like the missing PHP 6, it's also going to cause confusion for users. It might've been better to just mea culpa and release 3.0 anyway. I can't imagine anybody would really hold it against the author.
- johannes1234321 1y agoWhat's the confusion around PHP 6? - There would have been a lot more confusion due to articles, talk slides, even printed books, .. talking about PHP 6's Unicode support would have been truly confusing.
- pavon 1y agoAs long as they commit to making the next version after this htmx 8, I will be content with this versioning scheme.
- recursivedoubts 1y agoif there is another version of htmx it will be 8 for sure
- jchanimal 1y agohtmx forever
- halapro 1y agoWhy skip version 7? It should be 6 7 Then 8
- adfm 1y agodef 6 and 7
- b33j0r 1y agoMeme versioning could work. Memes are temporal. You can derive a lot of information about my age and current version from the dad-joke version string “I thought it was 6 7 when 7 8 9”
- halapro 1y agoYou might have to skip 9 to avoid faulty version checks

- hasanhaja 1y agoMaybe the versioning should be powers of 2
- abnercoimbre 1y agoA mea culpa would've been just fine. Even Big Tech can't keep their promises around this stuff (Windows 10 was the last OS remember?)
- panxyh 1y agoTraditionally, software engineers are smart people
- Freedom2 1y agoSource for this? After years in the industry, I believe otherwise at this point.
- rmunn 1y agoThere are plenty of people with high INT and low WIS. As the old joke goes, intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing not to put tomatoes in a fruit salad.
- scuff3d 1y agoINT is knowing how to use Kubernetes, WIS is knowing when not to?
- nasretdinov 1y agoI wonder if the intersection of HTMX and Kubernetes users is empty or not :). I wouldn't be surprised (and it'd be great!) if it is.
- themantri 1y agoIt isn't! Source: I use both. :)
- drob518 1y agoApple just jumped to version 26 across all its code bases. I think HTMX can survive with skipping to 4.
- SwiftyBug 1y agoMaybe they could just initially launch v3.1 instead of a v3.0. They would still be technically correct.
