181 In earlier versions, 1.x were stable version and from 2.0.x to 2.2.x
182 were beta version. But since version 2.3.0, the second (minor) version
183 number implies the stability of the Wanderlust. Even minor number
184 corresponds to a stable version, and an odd minor number corresponds
185 to a development version. This version numbering is based on the
186 widespread convention of open source development.
188 On the open CVS server cvs.m17n.org, main trunk contains the current
189 beta (newest experimental) version, and branches contain the stable
190 version. (If the version is 2.4.x, the branch name is wl-2_4)
