/* Versions */
# '''Code Freeze''' (1 - 2 Weeks): This is a late freeze to avoid sudden last-minute accidents which could risk the stability that should have been reached at this point. No source code changes are allowed without two approvals from the release team, but translation and documentation should continue. Simple build fixes are, of course, allowed without asking.
= Versions Versioning =[http://semver.org/ Semantic Versioning]:Given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, increment the:* MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes,* MINOR version when you add functionality in a backwards-compatible manner, and* PATCH version when you make backwards-compatible bug fixes. Additional labels for pre-release and build metadata are available as extensions to the MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH format. 
* Scheme: major.minor.patch, example: <code>1.2.3</code>.
* Odd minor version numbers denote development/unstable branches. For example, stoney cloud 0.8.x is considered stable, while stoney cloud 0.9.x is considered development/unstable.
