EEGLAB revision history

From SCCN

Below are EEGLAB version as they are tagged in the SVN repository. You may check out each version by selecting the appropriate tag in the repository. The current version (HEAD) should not be different from the latest tag version. Critical updates are indicated with bug fixes in red. This correspond to updates where the processing performed was inaccurate. Updates fixing function crashes under some particular calling conditions are not indicated in red.

Why is the zip file for the latest release missing?

The HEAD revision of EEGLAB is usually not available as a .ZIP file. It is available only using the SVN revision software. About every month, a revision number is issued and a zip file released.

Why are you supporting different EEGLAB version?

The HEAD EEGLAB revision (currently version 12) is the revision we are working on. It contains more bug fixes but is also at times more unstable (especially new features). We are thus also supporting version 11. In version 11, only important bugs are corrected. All the development takes place in version 12.

I do not understand the revision numbers

The first number is the current revision (11 or 12). Following numbers indicate revision of different level of importance. For instance, version 10.2.3.5 means that we are dealing with EEGLAB 10 and 2 major revisions were issued, 3 semi-important revisions, and 5 minor revisions. The second, third and fourth number vary independently. For instance, if a major revision is made to version 10.2.3.5, the revision number is going to be 10.3.3.5. However, when we change of EEGLAB version (11 to 12 or 12 to 13), we reset all subsequent sub-revision numbers (the first version 13 will be 13.0.0.0). The Mathworks uses a similar scheme for Matlab (for instance 7.11.0.584).
