| | 6 | GRASS 6.3.0 is not intended to be a stable release (ie with ongoing |
| | 7 | support), it is a beta "development preview" release of what the 6.4 |
| | 8 | stable release will be like. It is more stable than a development source code snapshot but |
| | 9 | less than an official stable release. |
| | 10 | |
| | 11 | It is meant as a "technology preview" gift from the developers to interested power users and beta testers. |
| | 12 | It is mostly bug-free and very usable for day-to-day work, but it is not as mature and well tested as 6.2.3, which remains the recommended platform for production users. |
