I'm glad Thorsen agrees with me, but I'm really in favor of whatever gets a stable Lenya 2.0 out the door. I had previously argued maybe 18 months ago, that development should be based on a released version of Cocoon, precisely so we wouldn't come to a difficult decision point like this, but I lost that argument long ago to others who have (deservedly) far more influence than me. I happily accept the consensus of the group, though, so If Cocoon 2.1.10 is likely to be less stable than 2.1.x then I think we should go with the latter. The rest of you are more qualified than me to judge the risk in that. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
