Semantic Versioning Issues

Semantic Versioning is great. It adds semantic meaning to those pesky version numbers.

The most popular semantic versioning standard is semver, which states:

Notes

  1. Use Safari. Whenever you are prompted about Java security, click the follow menu items:
    1. Safari -> Preferences -> Security -> Manage Website Settings... -> Java
    2. Use the dropdown to enable Allow Always and Run in Unsafe Mode for the gov.au entries
  2. Make sure no other downloads are running, as the website requires a fast ping to work and will timeout otherwise
  3. Each computer requires it's own AusKey
