The rythm of major releases of Access2Base is twice every year, as for 
LO. So, that's not the issue.

But Access2Base existed as an extension before being bundled with LO 4.2.
The issue is:
- LO 4.1 users (btw AOO users as well ...) shall be able to install the 
latest A2B version (as an extension), when it will be published, i.e. 
simultaneously with LO 4.3.0.
- LO 4.3 users will get the latest A2B version
- However LO 4.2 users who, for any reason, would like not to upgrade to 
LO 4.3 immediately , would stay in the older version. Indeed minor 
releases of LO (4.2.X++) allow bug fixes, not functional enhancements. 
That's why a patch has been developed by Lionel to allow the 
installation of the A2B extension anyway if users really want to benefit 
from its last version.

Have a nice vacation.
