A comment on Laravel 5 released. Parent comment

That's an odd argument. Is Rails poorly designed because it's had 4 versions, or Django because it's had 8? Seems much more to do with the pace of the development than the architectural quality, to me.

EDIT: It depends on what the versioning represents.

I don't think there have been as many breaking changes in Rails vs Laravel, and Rails at v4 has been over ... 9-10 years? Laravel is < 6 years old, with, from what it seems to be, rather significant philosophical changes between major versions. Doesn't mean it's bad, but perhaps closer to using gentoo vs centos.
