I would highly recommend you use the snapshot or svn checkout because
we are close to 1.0.4 and it looks like the symlink wasn't updated for
1.0.3 we'll get that fixed.

BTW, you also recommend SVN trunk for production servers?
IMHO, should be a stable release for this purpose.

FreeSWITCH is one of those unusual projects where the SVN trunk is
generally more stable than the tagged releases.

Thats up to you... I use SVN Trunk when I know things are good but
thats my job... thats why I work hard on QA for the project. We did
have some regressions over the past few days that we did finally
narrow down and fix over the weekend... and yes we work pretty much
24/7 Smile

We are trying to get SVN to the point so we can release 1.0.4 and it
has MANY fixes over 1.0.3.

I run SVN on several production servers...

"Stable Releases" are just that some point in the code where the maintainers
felt it was stable enuff to release on that given day...

With FreeSwitch however it never fails, a big bug is found and fixed w/in 2
days of that "stable release" so its not really that stable at all...

Until we get more people testing and actually reporting bugs on RCs I doubt
this well ever change...

No offense taken.

My custom is to install production systems using stable versions and

But I don't change software versions until I really need to do it (for

Nothing wrong with this custom.

Understood. Production systems have their own issues. One custom that
is common is to have a production system and a "sandbox" system. You
could have your sandbox system to a "make current" every night and you
could run simple tests via cron to see if anything important to you is
somehow broken. If all is well then you know that you can upgrade your
production system.

This is a tough one. It may be a minor bug to me but it could be a
major bug to you. In other words this is almost an impossible question
to answer. This much I can say: the FS devs make lots of changes each
day but they don't leave the SVN trunk in an unstable state at any
point, especially at the end of the day. (GMT -6 time zone.)

The bottom line is still the same: FreeSWITCH is one of those rare
software projects where the SVN trunk is almost always more stable and
less buggy than the most recent "stable" release. My recommendation to
you is to find the update schedule that works best for you, be it
daily, weekly or some other period.

Hi Michael,

All I have to say is thank you very much. Thanks for this explanation,
that's what I was looking for. So, I will figure out which is the most
convenient update schedule for me and I will build a sandbox for this
exclusive purpose.
Not only FS rocks, but the community too.
Kudos

Pablo
