Am I missing something?
Yep, but this last release the log was kinda "vague": - Fixes a last-minute regression. Some really common software did not run on Cherokee 0.99.41. I mean, I must fear it? :) I'm affected?

I don't think it's more than giving some visibility to any changes in each release that: a. can affect the stability of the service or b. can affect the security of the service We must find the proper way to do it, some examples: http://www.debian.org/security/ http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/ OK, both are distributions and deserve a different treatment for the security stuff, but it can be a good starting point. You know that the devil it's in the details, and something that simple can make a product more trustworthy (ie. signing the releases with GPG would be easy and a good point for Cherokee). > > What do you think about it?
