| It's an amusing solution, but if this ends up being anything like the missing PHP 6, it's also going to cause confusion for users. It might've been better to just mea culpa and release 3.0 anyway. I can't imagine anybody would really hold it against the author. |

| ▲ | pavon 3 days ago | parent | next [-] | | As long as they commit to making the next version after this htmx 8, I will be content with this versioning scheme. | | |
| ▲ | halapro 3 days ago | parent | next [-] | | Why skip version 7? It should be 6 7 Then 8 | | |
| ▲ | b33j0r 3 days ago | parent | next [-] | | Meme versioning could work. Memes are temporal. You can derive a lot of information about my age and current version from the dad-joke version string “I thought it was 6 7 when 7 8 9” | | | |
| ▲ | hasanhaja 2 days ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | Maybe the versioning should be powers of 2 | |

| ▲ | drob518 3 days ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | Apple just jumped to version 26 across all its code bases. I think HTMX can survive with skipping to 4. | |
| ▲ | johannes1234321 3 days ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | What's the confusion around PHP 6? - There would have been a lot more confusion due to articles, talk slides, even printed books, .. talking about PHP 6's Unicode support would have been truly confusing. | |
| ▲ | abnercoimbre 3 days ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | A mea culpa would've been just fine. Even Big Tech can't keep their promises around this stuff (Windows 10 was the last OS remember?) | |

| ▲ | rmunn 3 days ago | parent [-] | | There are plenty of people with high INT and low WIS. As the old joke goes, intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing not to put tomatoes in a fruit salad. | | |
| ▲ | scuff3d 3 days ago | parent [-] | | INT is knowing how to use Kubernetes, WIS is knowing when not to? | | |
| ▲ | nasretdinov 2 days ago | parent [-] | | I wonder if the intersection of HTMX and Kubernetes users is empty or not :). I wouldn't be surprised (and it'd be great!) if it is. |

| Should go directly to htmx 4.1, so we can finally have xhtmx 1.0 |

| The author is lucky the phrasing wasn't "there won't be another major version of htmx", or even "a third version". |
| |
| ▲ | scuff3d 3 days ago | parent [-] | | From what I know of Carson from his writing and presentations, he probably worded it that way on purpose knowing he'd eventually do a new version, and he didn't want to miss an opportunity to troll everyone a bit. |
