*question at the end after a cheap plug for all to subscribe and support the project**
Firstly, so long as I use CB I will be a document supporter! I installed 1.1 on a J1.0.x install a few months ago and played with it for about 10 minutes. One can't fully appreciate the work that went into this extension, the size, the scope, without taking it for a real test drive.
Well, I stayed up all night.
I have such a greater respect for the entire CB team, especially given the fact that your blood, sweat, and tears are put out there for the whole world in the form of open source code. Awesome. This extension has $299 written all over it, at least.
Being an economist who has an affinity for data, the way in which CB manipulates all the user data and presents these data in an eye-pleasing fashion is just incredible. I can only now understand what went into this whole project.
Okay, now the question.
CB1.2 is rock solid, reflecting the work Beat and company put into it during the final hours prior to release, in hopes of ensuring that it released bug-free.
While I am going to play with it for a week or two on a test install as I learn my way around the interface, code, etc, I would like to install it on a site that will be going live in the not-too-distant future. Once CB goes stable, will the upgrade/update be as simple as overwriting the RC files with the latest and greatest, whether by SVN or not, or would we have to uninstall and install the new extension?
I just hate installing and uninstalling, so if this is the case, I'll wait...but if the RC -> stable path will be simply overwriting some files, I am going to run with the RC.
Again, awesome, guys. Simply awesome. I look forward to native J1.5 extensions that take full advantage of the amazing platform you have created.
Respectfully,
