Introduction
Each month we release a new version of Launchpad with the latest features and bug fixes.
We use Launchpad milestones to target work for these releases. You can see what we have planned for each release by visiting the milestones page for the Launchpad project group and viewing one of the upcoming milestones.
Finding the current release and build numbers
The right side of the footer on every Launchpad page shows you the release and build numbers of that version of Launchpad. On standard Launchpad, the version number is the most recent full release.
On other environments, such as Edge or Staging, the footer also shows you which environment you're using.
Finding the release number |
Here you can see that this is release 1.2.3, build 5832 on Edge. As this is Edge, the version number is of the release that is currently in development.
Release numbering
Our release numbers are easy to understand and follow a format you're likely to have seen elsewhere.
Let's take a look at an example:
Understanding Launchpad release numbers |
Major release: this is the first integer in the release number. We increase this number when there's a significant change in functionality or the underlying structure.
Minor release: the second integer. This represents an incremental change in functionality or structure. For example: we moved from 1.1.x to 1.2.x with our January 2008 release.
Individual release: the third integer. This changes with each roll-out of new Launchpad code. Right now, we release a new version once a month, although this number doesn't necessarily tie up with number of the month.
We don't use release candidate numbers.
Build numbering
If you need to know which version of Launchpad you're using, you can take a look at the release number.
However, if you're using our Edge environment, it may be helpful to know the exact build you're using. On Edge, the build number changes almost every day. On standard Launchpad, it rarely changes more than once per release.
If you discover a bug in the Edge version of Launchpad, providing the build number in your bug report may help the Launchpad team.
Release announcements
With every release, we tell you what's new in a release announcement posted to the launchpad-users mailing list and the Launchpad News blog.
