Hi Greg, Thank you for the review. Two questions before I resend: 1. How do I tell which release a patch targets? Is it purely based on w= hether it's a bug fix (current release) vs. a new change (next release)= , or is there a more specific rule I should follow? 2. For versioning the split series, should the bug fix patch restart at= v1, and the rest of the series continue at v7? Or should I keep them s= equential (bug fix as v7, next-release patches as v8)? Thanks, Salman Alghamdi
