- June 2008, Privoxy 3.0.9 beta is released. There are no major new
- features, but many improvements and refinements. 
+ Previously, odd numbered releases were considered beta versions and
+ were only released at the end of the development cycle when the code
+ was already believed to be stable. Usually it was, so the stable release
+ contained pretty much the same code, but got a higher version number.
+ In the future we intend to release several snapshots between stable releases.
+ There will probably still be about two stable releases per year,
+ but hopefully about six snapshots instead of the two betas we have now.
+ The intentions is to make testing without CVS access easier.
