The version number must be bump in separate occasions: - when releasing a BLEAD-FINAL (or anything besides a BLEAD-POINT), bump the version at the beginning of the release process - after releasing a BLEAD-POINT, bump the version to prepare for the next dev release (even it the next release is likely to be an RC or BLEAD-FINAL) - after releasing a BLEAD-FINAL, bump the version to the new .0 for the new dev cycle
- make the perlpolicy update more prominent by adding a specific section header - clarify the PERL_API constants instructions and make them release-specific - move the end-of-support email instructions to the email section Co-authored-by: Eric Herman <eric@freesa.org>

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Just to make sure I'm understanding this correctly, this is regarding what the version will be bumped to in blead; the reason for this exception is that after a stable 0 release, blead immediately becomes a development branch instead of continued for maintenance releases. Is that accurate to why this logic is here?
