Scripts and Plugins

For a long time XBMC has been using a major.minor.build (x.y.z) version scheme for all addons. The only exception have been XBMC's internal addons.

With Frodo it was ensured that all of internal XBMC addons comply with this x.y.z version scheme as well. With Gotham we will continue this set course.

If you are going to submit your addon to the Gotham addon repo and your addon depends on any of internal xbmc addons, please make sure you depend on a x.y.z version.

The current versions for Frodo are as listed below:

xbmc.addon : 12.0.0
xbmc.core : 0.1.0
xbmc.gui : 4.0.0 (will be changed to 5.0.0 when releases)
xbmc.json : 6.0.0
xbmc.metadata : 2.1.0
xbmc.python : 2.1.0
