From what i can see actually on download page, they've been effectivly released on 11 November 2013 (i've downloaded them), and information/version is like that.
Hello Pierre,
So, i think that, even if they've been "officialy announced" on 14 November 2013, this date shoulnd't be marked as the release date (apart if they're repackaged on 14)...
Are they crazzy ? Do they really realise this :

Bug fixes for general core bugs in 2.0.x will end December 2011. NEARLY 2 months from now !!!!!
Bug fixes for serious security issues in 2.0.x will end June 2012. Only 8 months from now !!!

They seem to think that adding a version decimal is a sign of a great progress.
If we look back the most important versions were 1.5 , 1.6 , 1.9 then 2.
However look how many are on 1,9 which is a mature version.
This is definitively not the case of 2,0 if you look at the new question engine.
 
OU will step directly to 2,2 even if this is not as stable as it should.
 
The curves showing the bug created and solved does not tell all the truth as the real testing
has a time lag with the version release date.  
How many tested 2,1 this last summer ?
 
This should be put in forum but perhaps we are too far from the headquarters viewpoint ?

I quite agree with you, Pierre & Jean-Michele, on account of versions. This rush with new version every 6 months is quite a bother for many reasons: bother for 3d party developers, who should upgrade their modules too fast, bother for teachers who should get used to new interface too often - and often without nearly enough help/docs (yes, in this rush developers hardly have time to write serious docs), bother for admins since they discontinue bug fixes before most bugs are finded and fixed in these versions, bother for translators who don't have time to translate all new strings before new version arrives.... I liked old, 1.x system, with 1 release in a 1-1,5 year MUCH more.

Release date for 2.5.3, 2.4.7 and 2.3.10

I see you've modified release date for 2.5.3, 2.4.7 and 2.3.10, to 14 November 2013 (previously 11 November 2013).
From what i can see actually on download page, they've been effectivly released on 11 November 2013 (i've downloaded them), and information/version is like that.
So, i think that, even if they've been "officialy announced" on 14 November 2013, this date shoulnd't be marked as the release date (apart if they're repackaged on 14)...
