Is Sabayon 5 going to be released as 5.1 or 5.0. On the roadmap, it says that version 5.0 was released on August 9th.

The next release will be Sabayon 5.

On the roadmap you can see:
As always, dates can change WITHOUT notice. It's more important for us to give you a stable release.


Probably there were some delays :)

I saw that, but it's weird how a release is being pushed back over a month. And I'm not sure if this is right, but Distrowatch says that Sabaon 5.1 is coming out at the end of the month too. Oh well, better safe than sorry.

well, my personal opinion is that stability has the highest priority, so
if an entire month was necessary to have a richer and more stable environment,
I think it was worth the wait.
I'm not in the position to comment on the delays, probably there were good reasons
behind them...

I didn't see the news from distrowatch, so I can't comment on them either...

As far as I know, it's just 5 (meaning 5.0).
