I believe that 1.9 was supposed to be a beta (1.5 and 1.7 were), but the plans for 2.0 got to be too ambitious and there came a need for a version number between 1.8 and 2.0. I suppose it could have been called 1.10 but there were presumably good reasons.

- tesseract 18y agoAh. Maybe it should have been done in hex? %w[1.8 1.9 1.A].sort #=> ["1.8", "1.9", "1.A"]
