A comment on GCC 5.2 released. Parent comment

Woah, new and esoteric indeed!

    X.0.0 is experimental development
    X.0.1 is pre-release stabilization stage
    X.1.0 is the stable release
    X.1.1 is development of release branch (fixes and backports)
    X.2.0 is the second stable release
It looks like only X.1.0, X.2.0, etc uniquely tag a single point in the development history. Are all the others just moving labels?
