Feature Request

Nobody puts baby in the corner... :laugh: (old movie reference for those who don't get it)

So Phill has mentioned similar, and I'm not sure I understand why? Once it's released, don't updates just work as usual, or no?

Yes, provided that any update is not reliant on a feature of master that is not in the release version.

So full speed ahead with ideas, got it!!

I struggled to understand Phill's comment but my point is 2.8 should revert to updates being released on point releases to 2.8 and any new features should be restricted to 2.9 master branch. Lets revert to the development cycle that should always have been in place... Users need a stable system to work with if they want to change screen sets or add their own enhancements..

Or live dangerously on master which is the only life I've ever known..

I guess I understand what you're getting at. But what about bugs that get squished after release?

As far as the users go they don't have to update...

Bugs??? Whats the test pilot been doing? I understand bug fixes can be push as they are resolved.
