So, we do the switch, right? Seeing the discussions and conflicting arguments/ preferences I'm no longer that enthusiastic about the whole ordeal... it feels like we're trying to disturb people in their work. Sigh. Anyway, if this experiment doesn't work we *can* revert. It's not the end of the

It's nothing personal, Erik! I honestly wouldn't want people to put additional effort just for the sake of saying "we've switched to git". But at the same time what's driving me is what I mentioned at the beginning -- I was reluctant to switch to git (with my other projects) at first too, but I

Another reason I would be +1 to releasing 5.5 is that there are some appealing changes sitting on the 5.x branch like better rewriting of boolean queries or better handling of "slow" (two-phased) queries in disjunctions and negations. Le jeu. 21 janv. 2016 à 08:18, Robert Muir

I dont see how a bugfix release relates to it. Thats a bugfix release with a corruption fix: its totally unrelated. we have over a months worth of improvements and features in 5.5! On Thu, Jan 21, 2016 at 12:32 PM, Erick Erickson wrote: > I a thinking 5.4.1, RC2, vote

Yeah, a month is fine for a release. No one has to upgrade at the pace we release, and previous bug fix releases will often come out even *after* the next point release. We would have to spend an insane amount of effort to get too releasing too often IMO. - Mark On Thu, Jan 21, 2016 at 12:36 PM

+1 to a 5.5 release. I really think we should do a deprecation release before 6.0, and that may/may not be 5.5. On Wed, Jan 20, 2016 at 11:17 PM, Robert Muir wrote: > one idea, we could use it to our advantage: as soon as we go to git, > immediately (e.g. after just a few days

one idea, we could use it to our advantage: as soon as we go to git, immediately (e.g. after just a few days or whatever) start a 5.5 release? besides keeping things less confusing, it could make the 6.0 release more easygoing. because we'd have already worked through the pain of release process
