Hi, I am the developer of PdfDing. One thing I am not sure about is the frequency of my releases. What do you folks prefer in self-hosted projects? More releases in order to get new features as fast as possible or fewer releases with bigger feature additions?

    Very good point about Agile.

    As an end-user (that is, the IT staff that will be deploying/managing things), I prefer less-frequent releases. I’d love to see 1 or 2 releases a year for all software (pipe dream, I know). Once you have a handful of packages, you end up with constant change to manage.

    I suspect what we end up with is early adopters embracing the frequent releases, and providing feedback/error reporting, while people like me benefit from them while choosing to upgrade less frequently.

    There are about 3 apps that I’m a beta tester for, so even I’m part of that early-adopter group.
