I agree with the rating system. Because the development of the svn proceeds so fast, there are many enticing features that makes one want to try out the svn and possibly use it in a production environment. Maybe every 10 release or so, we can have a usable release that people can try out to get the new features? Ofcourse we cannot expect every thing to work in this release, but for this stable release, we could remove the stuff we know doesn't work for sure and only add the new features / patches from the previous stable release.

Hey,

I agree with Thomas on the revision system for roundcube. I tend to have a "good" snapshot on my server, and an experimental one, which I just copy the config files to. If the experimental snapshot works well enough, I make it my primary one.

But I also think the rating would be a cool feature to Trac. I think you should suggest it to them. Maybe the "quality" of a snapshot could be linked to the number of Bug tickets assigned to that revision.

Cheers,
