Good point - although we could always change the download page value so that 1.0.x looks in a different place than 1.1.x. I gather you've got it going anyway, though, so it'll work with the same file. > Speaking of upgrades: now that we have a 1.0 "final" out > there, are we only going to notify users of new "final" > releases or do we need to add a way for them to check for new > pre-release versions as well? Good question :) I presume this will do the 'wrong' thing at the moment, since 1.1a1 is technically a higher version than 1.0.1. I think the most sensible thing would be to only suggest upgrading when there is a newer final version out. spambayes-announce and the website will cover prereleases coming out, which should be enough (since they may not actually work well anyway). Is that a simple change to the code? An alternative would be to enhance the 'new version' dialog so that if I'm running 1.0.1 and I check for a new version I get something like: """ You are using the most recent version available (SpamBayes 1.0.1). """ """ You are using the most recent version available (SpamBayes 1.0.1). There is also a prerelease (testing) version available (SpamBayes 1.1a1). If you would like to help test this version, you may download and install this. """ """ There is a new version available (SpamBayes 1.0.2). We suggest that you upgrade when possible. Alternatively, there is a prerelease (testing) version available (SpamBayes 1.1a1). If you would like to help test this version, you may download and install this. """ """ There is a new version available (SpamBayes 1.1). We suggest that you upgrade when possible. """ I presume that once there is a 1.1 final, we'll no longer be doing any 1.0.x bugfix releases. =Tony.Meyer _______________________________________________ spambayes-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes-dev
