Whats with the version numbers?

Processing is not yet 1.0 software.. It’s buggy and may kill people.* That’s part of why we used to make everyone sign up to download, so that we know that you care enough to bother and have more of an inkling of what you’re getting into. At least until the final 1.0 version, we’ll be using four digit numbers for the release. Revision 0085 was the first “beta” release, which means that all the features are in, but not all the bugs are out. There remain several known issues with the beta release that will need to be sorted out before we’re comfortable calling a release an actual final 1.0. The numbered releases aren’t always heavily tested, so don’t be surprised if/when something breaks. Check the bugs section of the site and report the problem if it’s new, and in the meantime, you can go back to the previous numbered release until there’s a fix. * Processing is not yet known to be responsible for any confirmed deaths.
