[Aperture-devel] Upgrading

[Grant I. <gra...@gm...>]

Seems quiet around here lately...

I am looking at the new beta version out, and am wondering if there is  
a recommended path for upgrading to the latest?  Are there release  
notes online somewhere?

Also, is there a sense that this API is going to be fairly stable at  
this point and, most importantly, the triple names?  In other words,  
should I wait for the official release to come out before upgrading so  
that I don't have to make major changes again?

Does Aperture have any backward compatibility policies?  I know it is  
early in O/S development (not even 1.0 yet), but this is something to  
think about establishing.  Over in Lucene-land, it is something that  
has really helped our users (but is sometimes a pain for the devs, but  
usually not).  Not saying you should adopt Lucene's, but you may find  
it useful if you do decide to establish one: http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/BackwardsCompatibility


Thanks for the great library!
