10:01 <kares> enebo: any reason why you're against doing rc releases instead of several point ones?

10:01 <kares> or do you fear people would not try those?

15:14 <enebo> kares: in general less people try rcs. in this case we were supposed to be putting out point releases and those should never require them...except when you don't put one out in 5 months

15:15 <enebo> kares: but we have done previews before major releases in the past. Not in a while though

15:37 <enebo> kares: if we ever go this long without any release we will definitely consider previews/rcs

15:44 <kares> enebo: feel like there's often a small breakage in a point, most times it might not matter much

15:44 <kares> but what it would allow is to run CI on travis against various repos of JRuby and others such as Sequel

15:45 <kares> its easy to spot regressions if there's a few days to test out a release against a few external suites

15:48 <enebo> kares: yeah we have been talking about getting strategic projects in our ci or theirs in ways we can know when we regress

15:48 <enebo> kares: which is one reason you are seeing sequel ci stuff now

15:48 <enebo> plus jeremyevans has really been super helpful in getting us such fast feedback

15:50 <enebo> if we can make sure we never regress then we help people who are willing to help us

15:50 <enebo> plus we obviously want a good release

15:51 <enebo> going to pottery bbl8r
