Yeah, i think i’m used to rapid development cycle, especially when you’re in 0.x.x version.

I used YUI in older version, so finding out there’s a new release with big gap in version number, kinda freak me out.

Anyway, i have tried 2.2.0, it’s great. I can’t wait to see more on next version, especially in DataTable. It’s a very useful tools for me.

As I wrote in the blog post announcing the release, we jumped the external version numbers to match what we’ve been using internally. It’s a housekeeping tweak, nothing more. See for yourself: on many yahoo sites, Y!Answers for example, you can see event_2.0.5.js, which — diff the files — is identical to public 0.12.0 (or is it 0.11.4?).

As you can imagine, managing this artificial difference was not efficient, and so with this release we made the change. I knew it was draw some raised eyebrows from astute folks like yourself, but I know it’s the right thing to do.

Thanks,
Nate

PS: Is 6 weeks really "like forever" between releases? You drive a tough bargain my friend, but I’ll see what I can do
