Packaging should be a relativity automated process you just change the branch you build against. Looking at package.cmd that Jurgen wrote for Windows it seems pretty complete from A to Z. On the other hand, AFAIK we are going to release more often, so I wonder if > it is > worth the while backporting fixes while releasing a new version, with the > same bugs > fixed. Yes. There are users how can't update to new major versions and a bug fix release is the only option. Any time you make a major release you can introduce new bugs with new features. It's fine for us that control the hardware we run stuff on but a lot of people don't and have to go though a major process to get an update. - Nathan
