Re: [Dolibarr-dev] Dolibarr 3.7 freeze

[Christophe Battarel]

Not sure it will work but we can try... i dont know many end users who tests beta versions; usually they wait for the "stable" release and they report bugs at this time (look at the posts in french forums when 3.6 was out...)
For what i understand from your RC stuff, if we take an example with 3.5.x releases, 3.5.0 should have been the first RC and 3.5.5 the stable release ?

Agreed that testing on an ERP is no easy feat.

But I support the idea of a public RC. Advertised efficiently, it would be a good way to get users into the pool.

After all an RC is supposed to be stable, it's what we want to release. It has already passed the beta stages and we consider this should be the final product so it shouldn't have any major defect.

Ideally consecutive betas and RCs should be published at a fixed rate, eg. once a week so there is enough time between each to make some work.

Also, when done correctly, the final release _is_ the last RC.

The establishment on an "visible" RC version (in the .fr and .org website) will permit users (not necessarily developer) to test more in depth version of this qualification and return faults detected. This is probably also to us to "educate" our clients to back the bugs. everyone will win.

Hi,

I'm an end user of Dolibar.
I'm here because I contribute to an other Open source Project (SPIP)
And so, I use to read developpers discussion to anticipate future.

With SPIP, testing RC is OK.
But with Dolibarr, testing is dangerous !
I don't think that any en user would be confident testing RC given the risk to loose essential data !

My 2 cents,
