How does the LyX version scheme work?
|

|

LyX uses a contiguous numbering scheme for versions, where a
|
||||
number "1.x.y" indicates a stable release '1.x', maintenance
|
||||
release 'y'. In other words, LyX 1.5.0 was the first stable
|
||||
release in the 1.5-series of LyX. At the time of writing, the
|
||||
latest maintenance release in the 1.5-series was LyX 1.5.2
|
||||
number "2.x.y" indicates a stable release '2.x', maintenance
|
||||
release 'y'. In other words, LyX 2.2.0 was the first stable
|
||||
release in the 2.2-series of LyX. At the time of writing, the
|

latest maintenance release in the 2.2-series was LyX 2.2.3.

Please note that maintenance releases are designed primarily to

* A good C++ compiler. Development is being done mainly with

gcc/g++, but some others work also. As of LyX 1.6.0, you need at

least gcc 3.2.x.
