From: Sylvain Joyeux Date: 2007-06-20T18:44:51+09:00 Subject: Re: Question about the patchlevel release cycle To clarify a bit: I'm not telling that a patchlevel release should be done every time a bug is fixed in subversion. Minor bugs (like #9376) really don't have to force a release. I personally feel a currently-released Ruby with a broken threading library should not last for more than a week (the fact that I'm depending on the threading library which is broken since 1.8.6 has nothing to do with this of course ;-)) That being said, I know that managing releases on something like Ruby is far from being an easy task. I just wanted to see everyone's point of view about that. Regards, Sylvain
