Indeed, I was under the assumption that 1.0 was still the stable
version, but apparently it’s not.
What do Leo and others think?
I would go for the upgrade. As this is a change affecting lots of packages, and this upgrade would allow us to reduce the chances to stuck with a vulnerable version. I also suppose, that there areg- some changes on core-updates we would like to merge anyways before 1.0, so if the upgrade goes smoothly, then this is not a big loss of time. Wdyt?
Thanks for the heads-up!
Ludo’.
