Hi Marc,

  I think that there should be some kind of rewording of the text in the

I disagree that it has to be as soon as possible.
There has been many months, maybe even a year, between the initial
requests and ideas for making our download suitable for average users and
the fix. (I remember myself late in the nights somewhere between Christmas
and and New years eve, in my vacation, picking this whole thread up.)
So I fail to see where the urgency is now.

As written before: there have been long and extensive discussions. And not
only that, also :

a. the 3.5. branch is stable. And in many aspects better then the 3.4
branch.
b. Anyone leading a serious deployment will read the release notes and

(Hmm, looks as if I start to repeat myself. Not something I am usually

  I suspect that, in some countries, the language used on the download

It is an artificial distinction to talk about 'stable' and 'in
development' here.
For the non stable we have the pre-releases and the dailies.

  We need to rework the language to avoid such risks.

General remark (not meant for you personally):
I think the woes about bugs in 3.5 is overdone. It might easily become
sickening and counter productive. Rather then just counting numbers, better
triaging, bundling en description of issues is helpful.


  I put this on the marketing list as this discussion has more to do about

There was a very large discussion that led to the change of the page.
And I think that it's not good to change it over and again, without
respect to the previous discussion.
If there are new facts, or previously not noticed insights and such, it is
useful to reopen the discussion of course.

Kind regards,
