I don't know much about 'Who uses Apache Directory Studio'.
we neither :) The only thing we can tell is that there are more than 10
000 downloads since last year !
OOH it doesn't makes a good impression to the user when a bugfix
release follows immediately after a release,
yep
OTH do we get some better feedback from the User community when
releasing an RC first or do users only use released versions?
At least, users are aware that a RC may be not fully bug free (GA aren't
bug free either, but at least, it's supposed to be more stable ...)
The idea behind a RC is just to wait N weeks before we can release a GA
: generally speaking, if there are big bugs, then we fix them and either
we release a GA, or switch to a RC2 if the bug might have huge impact.
