The last time we discussed this on here ( with Florent ) I'm pretty sure everyone agreed that easy_install should install the latest release, not the latest release candidate or beta. I haven't looked up the thread, but that is my recollection, possibly erroneous. Florent, do you recall? IMHO having it install a non release is really weird. I as a user would always expect easy_install to give me something known good and expect to have to ask specifically for a beta. Now I will defer to those in charge of course, but I really believe this is a case of bad packaging and does not contribute to our reputation in the marketing department. I'd like to humbly request that this be brought up on the main list to see what people actually are expecting. my two cents Iain --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears Trunk" group.
