A release candidate means "we think that this version is good for release". So it would even be contradictory to say so but not be confident enough to run it on t.e.o. Even more, we periodically upgrade t.e.o to latest of the stable branch, because the stable branch is just that, supposed to be "stable". I see no reason to not continue to do that. As jonas said, the benefits are greater than the risks here. Besides, the risks are not that great - if something goes wrong, we just fix it or, at worse, rollback a few revisions. That being said, it would be nice if we could get some /real/ test environments on edgewall.org. Indeed, the current "official" demo site on hosted-projects.com has a couple of problems: - it runs 0.10.5 - who cares about this version anymore ;-) - it's not spam protected Ideally, the test environments should run the latest committed code (one for 0.11-stable, another for 0.12dev). Maybe the new server is beefy enough to allow those environments to run in a sandbox (chroot / vm)? If not, then running at least the same version as the one used for t.e.o itself should be doable without introducing additional security concerns. -- Christian --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Development" group.
