Some release policy along the lines of Ubuntu LTS will be great!<br><br>Our client has been running FS for more than 2 years now and they do not have a &quot;stay with the latest git&quot; policy. That would be a pain anyway. They are currently doing around 80 E1 lines at 10 different locations.<br>
<br>@MC, eagerly awaited :)<br><br clear="all">regards,<br>Anita<br><br>

    Hi all,<br>
    <br>
    About a strategy to release and support.<br>
    <br>
    I work for a integrator. We have in our portafolio two big brand:
    Alcatel and Genesys. They give new minor releases and hotfixes
    almost every week in their products. Mayor releases are available in
    one year, sometimes more. <br>
    <br>
    About minor releases and hot-fixes, it depend on our local scenario.
    Not all our customer has issues than involves/require apply
    hot-fixes each week. We use this approach:<br>
    1. If there is an issue, we look in there are an aplicable hotfix.
    If not, we try to find a workaround or get a estimated date for a
    hotfix.<br>
    2. Each year we offer to our customer access to last binaries to
    upgrade their platform to the latest release<br>
    <br>
    Also, you have to &quot;design&quot; an integral political procedure for
    upgrades, hot-fixes and roll-back. Because, FS depend on OS, and
    other components like mediagateway, routers, etc. I have seen in our
    customer, when they apply a patch in the OS or their pbx, could
    affect other systems.<div><div class="h5"><br>

          <p>Enterprise can&#39;t afford patch&amp; upgrade daily. You guys
            need to take a strategy to release and support. For
            instance, two release: stable release will has a life span 3
            years and be supported. Test release with latest features. </p>
