Making Business Sense with Bitweaver!

I have tried over the years to get people to use Bitweaver, but they have used other systems that are easier and more stable, despite bitweaver being good with postgresql.

The recent idea to make 6 releases a year just will not fly with businesses, who must hire programmers to effect the implementations, and who need a stable product that can be defended with security patches and major bugs.

I think Bitweaver is doomed to be a minor player, until they get some business persons in decision making roles, not just programmers.

Security is a problem, I believe that is ignored too much. But again, I am a businessman, what do I know, as I shift to other systems that provide a more businesslike agenda.

Maybe I am missing something crucial, so enlighten me!

Personally, I think jump from non-scheduled releases to releasing each 2 months is way too much. Stable half-year releasing would be enough in this case.

My two cents

Me too on the minor release every six months schedule; with ad hoc security patches as discovered/implemented.

For myself, when ever I hear of a version number upgrade to any of the software I use, I've got to spend time to find out what's changed, what's new, what's gone, etc., just to find out if I even want/need to devote time to doing the upgrade.
