Proposal: Dependency version monitoring #7

Closed ghost closed 9 years ago

Hello,

This project uses many different modules so it would be good idea to add automated dependency version monitoring. Easiest way to do that is use service like David.

Sign in with your GitHub account to David
You can check dependencies status from here
Add badge to the top of the README

Cheers

Thanks for the suggestion.

I'm pretty familiar with version monitoring. I'm not big fan of these badges, b/c they create a false sense of urgency - or more specifically - a false relationship between bumping versions and fixing/preventing bugs. There are many reasons to bump, and fixing a bug is only one of them. So for now I'm closing. I like to bump dependencies when there is a reason to do so.
