The point is that for regressions to be found and identified, large uptake is needed, and if update notifications are delayed, the fixes will be delayed and finding the regressions will also be delayed.
Agreed! Scratch my suggestion, it was not a good idea. I generally download each new calibre straight after release and have not yet had to roll one back due to a significant problem. Thanks for all the hard work.
