</div>I completely forgot to update the web page! I will do this either<br>
tomorrow or Thursday (although if anybody wants to issue a pull<br>
request to the website with the info, it can be redeployed asap.)<br>
Thank you again for doing this!<br>
<br>
I think the PPA, Kacper's ebuild, having pip install work, and TomR's<br>
MacPorts are all really, really good reasons to start focusing on<br>
reducing the install script overhead, handling things like<br>
dependencies in a more clear way, and making yt work as an independent<br>
software package much better. And I think the more we move into this<br>
area the more we should try to have a rolling, regular release<br>
schedule. Does that ring true to everybody else, too? The more we<br>
have the ability to install yt independently of hg, independently of<br>
the install_script, the more we should try to make a regular release<br>
schedule with it.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes! I personally think regular releases should be nearly automated based on the passing of tests at regular intervals (i.e. monthly/quarterly). If we are diligent about setting up BB issues that track individual enhancements, even the features changelog could be easily generated.</div>
