Re: Ubuntu PPA for 0.7

[Michael Lissner <mlissner michaeljaylissner com>]

I'm curious exactly HOW unstable the odd numbered versions are. Should
we expect data loss, would that be a huge surprise, or is it something
in between. If the odd versions are expected to not ruin your DB or your
photos, then I'm game to try it out...if there is a good risk of data
loss, I'm probably a bit gun shy, for now.
