I agree with you, especially the "good" part. Since Rakudo Star has to work for more people than just me, I'm a little hesitant to move quickly with it. I can't test it on Mac or Windows, for instance, but there are users on both platforms, and having a good but old release is probably better for them than new but broken. However, if the community would rather I mark the current -rc1 as a proper release, I can do that too. I just don't want to harm the community at large. > And, by the way, more generally, having a nine-month-old release to > offer on the main download site looks quite bad anyway. It's not you, > but something must be wrong in the process. It used to be on a three month interval, and I'd like to go to a two or three month interval myself as well. I can try to make that happen once I know for certain that the current release process works. -- With kind regards, Patrick Spek www: https://www.tyil.nl/ mail: p.s...@tyil.nl pgp: 1660 F6A2 DFA7 5347 322A 4DC0 7A6A C285 E2D9 8827 social: https://soc.fglt.nl/tyil git: https://gitlab.com/tyil/
