Would it be a good idea to start thinking about having multiple ‘rings’ for plugin releases and updates?
For instance, Hora 2.0.0 was just released and broke Rack. A scenario like that, when you have a bigger DAW-centric userbase (who, let’s be honest, are on the whole less likely to be engaged with the VCV community) could cause an avalanche of support issues, not just for VCV but the plugin devs themselves, making it more likely that those off-colour complaints occur.
Have the default ring push updates a few days later than ‘brave and fearless’ and it gives time for the community to identify and devs to fix whatever the problem is.
