It's a dead simple system You have your major which is version 5 your minor which in this case 2 and then the indev series. That's my take on the system anyways

What project's version number do carry any information these days?
I can imagine gcc tries to look more mature and stable than clang which is "only" 3.7

[davidbepo]

old versioning scheme was better

no, i mean gcc 5.1 should have been called 5.0 and 5.2 should have been 5.0.1

no, i mean gcc 5.1 should have been called 5.0 and 5.2 should have been 5.0.1

Indeed I won't be a bit supprised if this acutally slows adoption of GCC 5.x due to this version numbering madness.
