[support] Get thee to Drupal 7

[Metzler, David]

I read an article by Dries on Planet Drupal discussing this.   Sounds
like it some issues got delayed by following the policy of making sure
they were fixed in D8 as well.  Dries has recognized the issue, and has
made some adjustments (in commiting responsibilities) to solve the
problem. D7 is on a fairly regular release track now.

One thing I never understood. 7.0 was left loveless and abandoned (while
the bugs piled up) for three and a half months. The first bugfix for 6
took three weeks. It was only two weeks with D5.

What was the thinking behind that?

7.2 was released last Wednesday and will be the most current.

 

"Good to go" is a relative matter. It may be for you, but it is not for
me. And then there are the contribs...

	While discussing a rebuild of a fairly simple CMS site yesterday
I was
	asked questions about moving to Drupal7.
	
	--- There are many alpha and beta versions, Drupal7 beta 3 and
alpha 8
	so which is the most bug free latest version to install?
	-- Does Drupal 7, the recommended download have all the bug
fixes of the
	alpha and beta versions?
	-- There seem to be no new releases or bug fixes over the past
months,
	does this mean drupal 7 is good to go in production.
	
	Can someone please advise me on this.
	Thanks in advance
	Roger
	
	PS. I have both Drupal 7 stable and Drupal 7 beta 3 on my home
pc, both
	seem to work well but I could not answer those questions.
	Thanks
	R
