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