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? On 27/05/2011 21:31, Ms. Nancy Wichmann wrote:

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

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.
