as suggested by Sebastian, maybe the next stable version with security fixes should be named 2.9.0.1.
Is it too late, now that 2.9.1-rc1 has been released? I think it would be better to name it 2.9.0.1.
Is the intention to distinguish between non-critical and critical bug fixes by using the 3rd versus 4th version field? (I have no preference. I'm just looking for clarification on how to interpret the resulting version number.)
a.b.c.d increase in d has smallest changes. used mainly for security or urgent fixes - make it easy for admins to update, by keep the changelog as small as possible increase in c is a mature bugfix release, possible with noticeable changes increase in b introduces new features and behaviors -- Sebastian
