You are right, but I think also overall the Linux Users' community is

grown up enough to know what an svn version is, and through this very

discussion I think it is now clear to all that any ardour 3 version one

'gets hold of' it is to be considered such.

I think - hope - the reaction of users building from svn is "hey it's

coming along really well, thumbs up!". That was my reaction when I had a

peak last time. Yes I publicly confess I also did a 'curiosity build' :)

Finally, maybe the post on createdigitalmusic.co [1] did contribute to

increase a certain curiosity...
