Which version should new developers use?

[dolzenko]

The readme only has instructions for someone whos been using AMS previously, I'm currently starting a new project and is a bit lost as to what version I should be working with to reduce upgrade costs in the future (0.8/0.9/master).

Hey @dolzenko
Your question doesn't seem to fit as a GH issue, it seem more appropriate to the AMS mailing list.

Anyway, answering your question, I'd go with 0.8.0. The next version that we are working on 0.10.0 that may become 1.0, will be based on 0.8.0. The version 0.9.0 is sort of its own thing.

Thank you for asking! 😄
@steveklabnik if you agree, I think we can close it.

It might belong to The future of AMS but I can't post publicly there even after joining the group. Also this seems like an issue with documentation - it seems to make sense (given the overall confusion around the topic) to adjust docs to make it easier on newcomers.

Yes, I would recommend 0.8 if you're starting today. It's the widest used and will be closest to the future 0.10.

Oh? What happens?

@steveklabnik one of those typical PEBCAKs, worked now, sorry. And thank you for this clarification and all your amazing work in general!
