Re: [MooseFS-Users] IMPORTANT Changes in MooseFS Repository structure

[Piotr R. K. <pio...@mo...>]

Hi Wolfgang,

it was not changed yet, because we still notice a lot of users using "stable" in their repositories - there's a lot of entries with "stable" in our http server logs.
We decided to give users some extra time - it will be changed soon.

Of course! This is the best way - i.e. to decide consciously which version you want to use at the moment and set it explicite in sources.list and stop using "stable".

In case of big installations, some users still may want to stay with MooseFS 2.0 for a while, we understand this - because of this reason we created "moosefs-2" - to let them stay and prepare to the conscious and planned upgrade.

Best regards,
