however, it may be good practice to do more stable releases
typically
when majors bugs are fixed instead of having both bug fixes
and new
features in dev releases: because those new features are
likely to
introduce other bugs
of course, this requires more work and process for the
module maintainer
since it means working with branches, fixing in branches as
well, and
also still have HEAD where upcoming features and major
refactorings are put
to sum it up, ready when ready still applies
and said in a vulgar way, open source is not the excuse for
being
messy/lazy/careless - because although it's open source and
you're doing
it in you spare time etc, you have responsibilities towards
your user base
