Bump version to 0.12 #28

Closed paulvi closed 4 years ago

paulvi commented 5 years ago

There seems to be many places that have "0.11.6" including About dialogue and title. Are there any reason not bump version to 0.12 as those nighy builds?

Is there script for setting version?

Calebrw commented 5 years ago

Originally on the SourceForge side, the move to either 0.11.7 or 0.12.0 would signal an actual release with install files built, etc. In the FreeCol development the move from 0.11.x to 0.12.x signifies a change to the save file so that 0.10.x files are no longer able to be opened by 0.12.x. Development has stagnated somewhat in the past year or so and as far as I know, nothing has changed that would warrant 0.12.0.

Well, if and when 0.12 is released it should be named 0.12

so bumping to 0.12 and making sure it works as 0.12 is something holding 0.12 release ....

The next FreeCol release will be 0.12.0 due to some major changes. Development alas was stalled in 2019 but is picking up again now. The last thing that is changed before release is the version number, so bumping it now would be premature.

It would be nice to have some new release that is closer to the current development. Are there plans to release an update any time soon?
