Re: [cdt-dev] Updates for 9.0

Thanks Marc. There's been discussion about this at the planning council level. There are vendors out there that want to be more diligent in what updates they put out to their customers. As such it's better to give them the choice if they want updates or not from upstream sources.

:D

What is the drawback of we turned it on for all CDT installations? Odds are we will not put a new build on that update site but if we do it will mean it is very important.  We should probably have such a build only contain the exact essential fix we need and nothing more to keep risk low.

Just curious.

Thanks

Subject: [cdt-dev] Updates for 9.0

Hey gang,

We currently enter our update site URL into the list of available sites but we disable it. I want to be in a position where if we have emergency fixes to get out before September, I'd like to be able to do that and only have the user "Check for Updates" to get it. My testing this week showed we have some real rough spots where testing has been pretty light, Windows in particular. And if users run into real problems I don't want to tell them to wait until September.

We don't have to do turn it on in our main feature since that would affect all adopters, but I'd like to turn it on in our EPP. Any thoughts on that?

Doug.
