free. I would like to be able to contribute and share the load,
but it uses a technology I just don't have skills in. So I have to
depend on the people who do maintain it, to do so carefully. I
think this whole recent episode shows the need to be careful with
a production version, and to engage more people in review of
development versions. Though I can't produce useful pull requests,
I could provide useful input on something that I'm not depending
on urgently for publication, but haven't known how to engage with
that process. Michael
Apologies accepted. :)
I do think the team is quite aware that this update happened in less
than ideal conditions (though again, I can't speak on their behalf).
It might be worth discussing solutions to easily switch to a previous
stable version in case the latest release has bugs which block you from
publishing (I think Shane kind of informally set something of that sort
up recently).
