127 127 ===========
128 128  
129   -U-Boot uses a 3 level version number containing a version, a
130   -sub-version, and a patchlevel: "U-Boot-2.34.5" means version "2",
131   -sub-version "34", and patchlevel "4".
  129 +Starting with the release in October 2008, the names of the releases
  130 +were changed from numerical release numbers without deeper meaning
  131 +into a time stamp based numbering. Regular releases are identified by
  132 +names consisting of the calendar year and month of the release date.
  133 +Additional fields (if present) indicate release candidates or bug fix
  134 +releases in "stable" maintenance trees.
132 135  
133   -The patchlevel is used to indicate certain stages of development
134   -between released versions, i. e. officially released versions of
135   -U-Boot will always have a patchlevel of "0".
  136 +Examples:
  137 + U-Boot v2009.11 - Release November 2009
  138 + U-Boot v2009.11.1 - Release 1 in version November 2009 stable tree
  139 + U-Boot v2010.09-rc1 - Release candiate 1 for September 2010 release
