Hey there, I was wondering which version should I use on a production site? Seeing that there were no releases for nearly a year I would tend to grab the dev version, but then i?m not sure if it's stable enough to get straight to a production site? What would be your recommendation on the version to use?
thanks

In this particular case I say: if you have an English-only site, use 6.x-1.0-alpha5 just because the version number is nicer in your "update reports".
Otherwise use -dev.
I'm just downloading the module myself, and will pick up -dev.

There's very little difference between the alpha5 and -dev versions; only one code change on July 14th, 2009, which had to do with non-English sites - plus a few translation issues later in 2009.

(The date '2010-jul-11' on the -dev version is misleading. The actual last change to the -dev version was November 30th. See the 'CVS messages'.)

Version: 6.x-1.0-alpha5 » 6.x-1.0-alpha6
Status: Active » Closed (works as designed)

I just rolled alpha6 last night to clean up the worst of the open bugs. Try that. ;)
