GOAL:
How Progress Versions are Numbered
FIX:
When discussing Progress versions, you will usually see at least 2 numbers and a letter.
Examples:
7.2D
7.3E
8.3A
We refer to the first number in the version as the Major release number.
The second number is referred to as the Minor release (aka point release number).
The letter usually designates a specific main release or maintenance release within that version level.
If you see more than this 2 number and a letter pattern it usually indicates a patch level applied to a version.
Examples:
7.2D08
7.3C18
7.3E04
8.3C09
The addition numbers after the letter are used typically to denote
a patch number.
(Only in extremely rare cases will a Commercial release have more than just the 2 numbers and a letter version number.)
Examples:
Version 8.2A
is Major release 8, Minor release 2, maintenance release A
Version 8.2B
is Major release 8, Minor release 2, maintenance release B
Version 8.2C04
is Major release 8, Minor release 2, maintenance release C with patch 04
