[Monotone-devel] Release/Migration plan for monotone?

[Markus Meyer]

Hi everyone,

we are currently using Monotone 0.18 for version control in our
business, which works great for us. However, from reading the webpage,
it seems that there have already been some new versions released which
require migration of the database or even a complete rebuild of the
version history. So I'm asking: what is the recommended way to handle
this? Should we try to always keep our version of Monotone up to date to
minimize the risk of data corruption, or is it possible to wait for a
1.0 version? Will the 1.0 version be able to import databases from 0.18
without problems? What is the release plan for Monotone (i.e. will there
be a date set for 1.0, or does it follow a "it is ready when it is done"
approach")?

Again, thanks for providing Monotone!

All the best
Markus
