Hang on - 1.3 was only about three days ago! Rapid progress is obviously fantastic, but is there a reason why these two releases weren't bundled together? Edit

Edit: five days ago, but my point stands.
- Whitespace 12y agoProbably due to V8 upgrade which contains an embargoed fix. These are usually critical bugs that remain undisclosed until major users (read as: large companies) have patched their systems.
- inglor 12y agoGreat question. It started off as 1.3.x but ended up being 1.4 for semver issues. There was discussion[1] about this. In short - it was named 1.4 because of how NPM updated and because of the big features landing. [1] https://github.com/iojs/io.js/issues/932 https://github.com/iojs/io.js/issues/932
- colinramsay 12y agoSo issues beyond the control of io.js then? Makes more sense, just unfortunate I suppose.
- shouldbeworking 12y agoNot really unfortunate. Unlike with money, inflation of version numbers doesn't cause that much trouble. It just takes some getting used to. I've gotten used to the high version numbers in Chrome and Firefox, and I'm sure I'll get used to them in projects that use semver the right way as well.
