+1 I consider it part of the release-early/often philosophy to push releases that may only have changes in documentation or internal refactoring. It gives the testers something to chew on and helps keep development aligned with actual users. Also (and often under-emphasized) the psychological effect of seeing "and yet another release of Whatever" reflects that the project is alive and well and Doing Stuff, even if that stuff is invisible to end-users. -- Peter Karman . http://peknet.com/ .
