Is it a good idea to release more often #720

Closed ryzokuken closed 4 years ago

ryzokuken commented 4 years ago

I noticed that a substantial amount of changes have been made to the project since the last release. I wonder if it's a good idea to make releases more often, since the i3status-rust package on AUR lags far behind the master branch on i3status-rust-git.

See https://github.com/greshake/i3status-rust/issues/652

I guess if it still doesn't happen then I will look into it.

@ammgws I tried to get into the habit of releasing about once every 3 months, time permitting, although the project is a bit more active now. A known, regular release schedule takes some pressure off requests like this and gives everyone clarity on how long they'll need to wait for downstream packages to update.

Congratulations on the release!
