Re: [Tacos-devel] beta-1 release :(

Jesse,
 
In my own experience with open source projects (http://core-lan-org.sourceforge.net & http://helpcore.sourceforge.net) and "weird stuff going on in beta's" I've always opted not to release. Release early and release often does only apply if "release is working" ;-) Otherwise just keep it in alpha just a bit longer until it's fixed, saves a LOT of trouble.
 
An besides in open source, nearly everyone expects beta's to be as good as final releases, so why release now if you get get it fixed?
 
Kind regards,
Dennis Fleurbaaij

Subject: [Tacos-devel] beta-1 release :(

So since it seems like there's so much questionable stuff going on, and because it's friday I would have to say that a release isn't happening until Monday.

Let's say that between now and then though that no new features of any kind are added, just bug fixes and documentation updates.

Sound reasonable? I'm releasing beta-1 on Monday whether it's ready or not, there's always beta-2 ;)
