what are your opinions on infopop coming out with new versions as frequently as they do? (including the '.1' and the '.2.1.1' and the '.7.2.6.8 Alpha dev beta 43' types)
do you find that upgrading is a hassle? does it interfere with your threads?
have you lost conversations or features that your users truly enjoyed, because of upgrading?

There isn't an "Infopop Upgrade Police" that will come knocking on your door if you didn't upgrade.
Personally I appreciate it that Infopop releases bug fixes when needed instead of waiting for incremental upgrades based on a set time frame between releases. This way you have the option of upgrading if you wish to or are in need of the fixes.

I only upgrade when: a) there's a security breech fix or a major bug fix, or b) when there's a major new feature added that I want for my board. If one has a heavily-hacked board, I think it's almost silly to upgrade with each minor version (x.2.1.1.2) that comes out. :rolleyes:
