The script at http://phpmyadmin.net/home_page/version.php returns only the newest version for the 2.x branch, What about 3.x? -- Piotr Przybylski

I was sure that this was no longer needed so I removed its reference from the create-release.sh script, that's why it shows an old version (not even the latest 2.11 version). I'll have to study more carefully the situation and the whole upgrade script issue. I would appreciate your insight about this. However, this brings another point: because of the different requirements for 3.x, maybe it's not a good idea to offer an upgrade to all 2.x users? Marc

Yes, it would be good to have two scripts, let's say "version.php" for 2.x branch and "version3.php" for 3.x. -- Piotr

But how would you guess which user whats to use 3.x branch and which 2.x one? I think it is okay to offer latest version and if someone has to stay with 2.x branch, he has to check manually. -- Michal Čihař | http://cihar.com | http://phpmyadmin.cz
