Title: Are there any plans to release Core 0.10.4? Post by: darkfur93 on November 16, 2015, 05:40:56 PM As of the 16th there is only the test build on bitcoin.org https://bitcoin.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.10.4/
There is probably a few dozen people who like the 0.10 version over 0.11. Title: Re: Are there any plans to release Core 0.10.4? Post by: OmegaStarScream on November 16, 2015, 05:43:03 PM Probably not ? It wouldn't make a lot of sense to go back instead of going forward , would it ?

Post by: unamis76 on November 16, 2015, 06:42:22 PM Why? If a system runs 0.10, it can also run 0.11. I didn't even understand why was 0.10.3 released when we had 0.11 since July. Devs need to focus on updating the most recent version...

I also don't understand yet why this is the case, it's like they are developing 0.10 and 0.11 on the side. Why would you update something that is old? there must be a reasonable explanation because it feels pretty stupid to do so, and there shouldn't be any backwards compatibility thing.Title: Re: Are there any plans to release Core 0.10.4?

Devs need to focus on updating the most recent version... Agree, there is a logic reason about new release version, people should focused to upgrade their version as soon as possible, dunno why people dont do it, well, i can accept it when old system are used and cant run latest version, but im not sure that this is the case with bitcoin core. Btw if they have a test version on his web, probably they will release it soon. Title: Re: Are there any plans to release Core 0.10.4? Post by: saturn643 on November 16, 2015, 09:55:47 PM Why?

I think the problem is that not enough people have done the gitian builds (they require 3 or more people to continue with a release) so it cannot yet be released.

As to why it exists; we don't believe that you should be forced to take the latest/greatest software just to keep up with rule changes on the network or critical security fixes. You may have customization that require forward porting; or you may have a high effort verification process before accepting a major release. You may choose to only accept new versions after carefully reviewing them. We do not wish to discourage people from reviewing carefully.. So for critical bug-fixes fixes and new network behavior we make an effort to support older versions. We don't generally promote them, however-- if you need them, you'll know it. |
