Ok, I should rephrase  

"until 0.7's stability equals or exceeds that of 0.5 *and* open-net is
activated"

"Stable enough that updates only come a couple of times a year" ?

That will never happen, not if I have anything to do with it, certainly
not before 1.0.

0.5 had loads of updates. Granted there were periods when it had fewer
updates because people were concentrating on other things e.g.
simulations.

Now, should we try to only put out one new build number a week, or every
few days? Probably, but only after 0.7 has entered the beta phase.

I agree.  I am willing to experiment with 0.7, but until it is stable
enough that updates only come a couple of times a year and open-net is
activated, I will be keeping my main content on 0.5

 Until Freenet 0.7 has open-net I do not think it is ready to be treated
in favor of 0.5. New users are not sticking around on 0.7 because there
are few content, finding peers harder with darknet along other problems,
bugs and continual updates.

Pushing 0.7 onto new users in spite of it lack of maturity is in poor form.
  P.S. On a related topic of reports  complains about a lack of content
on Freenet 0.7, I may have an explanation for that. I am in touch with a
number of major Freenet (0.5) content providers since I run the largest
media  content index site on Freenet 0.5 (FreeNova). Many users,
including my self, are staying with 0.5 until 0.7 proves itself.

[freenet-support] Why is the main Download Freenet 0.7 when it's Alpha?

2006-07-27 Thread Scruple Scruple
  Why is alpha software Freenet 0.7 being pushed onto users on the download 
page? I think it better that the stable Freenet 0.5 be featured as the 
preferred download.

 http://freenet.sourceforge.net/download.html

 Until Freenet 0.7 has open-net I do not think it is ready to be treated in 
favor of 0.5. New users are not sticking around on 0.7 because there are few 
content, finding peers harder with darknet along other problems, bugs and 
continual updates.

Pushing 0.7 onto new users in spite of it lack of maturity is in poor form.
  P.S. On a related topic of reports & complains about a lack of content on 
Freenet 0.7, I may have an explanation for that. I am in touch with a number of 
major Freenet (0.5) content providers since I run the largest media & content 
index site on Freenet 0.5 (FreeNova). Many users, including my self, are 
staying with 0.5 until 0.7 proves itself.
