Opera brower version number nomenclature clarification
well the present version is 10.51 (or 10.52).Some people are complaining about certain issues here and there.
I'm just wondering if/when the fix those problems, opera moves to the next set of big tasks and renames it 10.60 or 10.6b, etc etc?
I'm still with opera 10.10 final. I'm happy with it and all the websites I use with it hardly crash anymore, so there isn't that big of a rush for me to upgrade.
There was a huge speed increase from 9.64 to 10.10 for me and I don't think that 10.50b with it's apparent bugginess is enough for me to upgrade for now. If there was a 10.60final version release, I'd upgrade to the latest 10.5x version. (if opera's nomenclature is structures so)
If there is a 10.6, it would likely be because of something like hardware acceleration. When 10.52 goes final, and they don't have anything major on the plate that's ready to be included, then there will probably be a 10.53, etc as more bugs are fixed, otherwise it will be another point release, 10.6, 10.7...etc.
For the most part they follow the usual major.minor.build format.
#.00 = Major changes to the application.
0.#0 = minor changes and features added. (the exception being x.5 which is about the same as #.00)
0.0# = fixes for the current release.
Other than that... the point to your post is... that you don't like to use the newest version... and?
You can also install more than one Opera if you want, I have 8.51, 9.64, 10.0, 10.1, 10.5, and 10.52 all installed at the same time, it's not like they use much space.
If you want to get an idea of where stuff is going:
