Assume, Gambas gets bigger and more important and somewhere in the
future there exists a Gambas 3.20 in old distributions like Debian and
Gambas 4.05 in current Ubuntu, each of these versions is "stable".

Assume also there is a security breach introduced in Gambas 3.10 ;-)

How would you insert a hotfix which would lead to stable 3.21 and stable
4.06 in your model? IMO ... that would be impossible.


Alles Gute
