[Gimp-docs] ANNOUNCE: Gimp User Manual 0.11 released

[Axel Wernicke]

I don't agree,

having the same numbering would just bundle our release-cycle very close to the GIMP releases. What if GIMP releases 2.4.25 and the manual didn't change since 2.4.24 at all. Do we a new release just because GIMP did?
An if we don't the manual seems to be "behind" compared to the GIMP.

I'd really suggest to be careful with the aim to do the same version numbering for the manual and GIMP itself.
Why not stick to what Roman wrote in the Release Notes: ... manual 0.12 for GIMP 2.2 ... it says it all.

greetings, lexA

ps.: may be we can associate a major version number for the manual to a major version of GIMP. Something like

GIMP 2.2.x documentation is gimp-doc 1.x
GIMP 2.4.x documentation is gimp-doc 2.x
