it's not like it makes a difference one way or the other but,
pedantically, calling it 0.28 *does* leapfrog *all* release
candidates, including the unofficial one you referred to earlier.
as long as all of the prior releases have been 0.28-rc<something>,
then, technically, there's never *been* an official 0.28 release.
(in fact, one could argue that, given that the numerous releases
labelled "0.28-rc???" have essentially been advertising themselves as
release candidates for *0.28*, it would seem kind of odd to suddenly
release 0.29 instead.)
anyway, makes no difference to me, but i just couldn't resist taking a
whack at what i considered bogus rationale.
