Subject: Re: [HACKERS] 8.3 Development Cycle
Sounds fine, but announcing this now is almost certain to reduce the
number of people migrating to 8.2. I am not saying we shouldn't
announce it now, but it is something I wanted to mention.
Err right - if you had said this yesterday when we discussed the idea I
could have mentioned it in my message. Right around the time you said
"Go for it" would have been good :-)
I didn't think of it until today. Sorry. Personally, I don't like
manipulating people by withholding information, so I still think we are
doing the right thing. I am just saying it might have that effect.
They will upgrade if they want the new features, as usual. I had dinner
with 3 significant users yesterday and mentioned to them the new
facility to add or drop inheritance on tables, and their reaction was
along the lines of "When can I have it? I want it now!" They won't be
deterred by the fact that the next dev cycle will be a bit shorter.
cheers
