Hey Bob,

 BR> Since I'm brand new to Synchronet, I was wondering what people's 
experience is with releases for Linux.  Right now the latest release is 3.18c.  




























































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































I see that Digital Man is almost constatly checking in new code, fixing bugs 
and tweaking things.  
 BR> Does he typically bundle those into releases periodicly?  Or are we just 
expected to do a GIT update on our own?  I asked him this question and he 
either didn't understand or I didn't understand his response.  He basically 
said if I want the changes
 BR> pull them down.  Which I get.... but I kinda wanna wait until he's 
comfortable with it, at which point I assume he makes a "release".

From my experience, DM releases about every 12 months (more or less). But daily 




























































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































he is tweaking, fixing or trying new things out.

Pretty much, whenever you checkout, things seem to always be working (and I 
think he runs VERT from git master, so if a commit breaks something, and he 
notices, he fixes it pretty quickly).

I normally rebuild when I a) I remember, and b) I notice the commit change 
frequency die down a bit. There's been a few times, I've kicked off a rebuild 
(I run sync in docker, so, I use gitlab CI to rebuild the container), only to 
see a new "interesting" commit being made and I've thought, that'd be useful...
