I completely disagree. The devs of this project do it in their spare
time. So seeing as how spare time is so hard to come-by, no-one can
guarantee that every two weeks will have improvements (minor or major).
Nothing may happen for a couple months due to schedules or whatever.
I understand why you want a shorter time-span between releases, but
essentially there's a release every night. The thing is, if you do dev
snap-shots or whatever, all it's going to be is a build of the Trunk
code from SVN. So rather than release it, just go get it. If you're
worried about buggy and unfinished code, don't use a development release
or SVN version. Stick with the releases.
Just my 2c.

Yeah, I fully agree! Right now the statement in the forums is just
"check out the svn version" or "fixed in svn". That does not make
sense, not everyone can or wants to use the SVN version - it might be
too buggy and contain unfinished code.
A development release every two weeks would be fine, with a clear
documentation of what has changed would be great!

hi,
why don't roundcube has regular release like 0.1, 0.2 etc? everybody
know it's a beta software and will care according to that. but even in
that case it's 0.1rc1 since almost a half a year now! wouldn't it be
better to make more regular release, users can test it and comment on
it. until it's reach the 1.0 version everybody know it's beta software
and use only care. but even if the development moving it seems to
standing. as one of the lesson to learn from opensource project "release
early".
just my 2c.
