Actually I was just thinking about moving the auto update notification to even numbers only. The only concern is that I'm sceptical as to how much testing odd number releases will actually recieve without the update notification. I doubt there are many people that actively keep an eye out for calibre updates. This way atleast when critical bugs are identified I can fix them in a jiffy.
Part of the reason that calibre has made so much progress so quickly is that I release buggy code, and get my users to do the testing for me. If I started to wait for code to "stabilize" the pace of development would inevitably slow down.
It's a tradeoff, and I'm not sure where the sweetspot is.
