Re: [hobbit] Most stable version?

[Josh Luthman <josh (at) imaginenetworksllc.com>]

My secondary server has been running 4.2.3 for three weeks.

I don't think you have to worry much about Henrik's releases when it comes
to stabilization.  From what I have seen releases are always very stable (by
my standards, that means you should almost never, probably never, see a
crash/something screwy).
