Surely the whole point about a test/staging system is any glitches won't impact on the production system. Mixing them the way you suggest would mean any problems with the test system would also impact the live one. Would this not be self defeating ?
Quite possibly, yes. I'm just thinking through options at the moment.
I imagine that the base functionality in Roundcube 1.0.x has been reasonably well tested at this point: I am more interested in making sure that our local plugins (which don't really touch the database) and theme work.
The disadvantage of a independent test system is that database updates there won't be reflected on the live system. This will discourage people from trying to use it.
Ultimately I just don't like big bang upgrades, and try to avoid them where possible.
