Release new versions more frequently
atjn opened this issue · comments
Hello :)
AFAIK most projects use the latest tagged version of mozjpeg
. Because mozjpeg
hasn't released an update in quite a while, all of these projects are missing out on ~1.5 years of improvements in both mozjpeg
and libjpeg-turbo
. Examples: sharp, homebrew, slackware, winlib.
I even found a case where libjpeg-turbo
was chosen instead of mozjpeg
because the latter seemed outdated. I would hate to see that become a trend.
Would it be possible for you to release newer versions more frequently? If you could do a release approximately every 6 months, then I think that would be completely fine.
Thank you! And please let me know if I'm missing something here.
For a long time now I've been using MozJPEG exclusively via the Rust crate, so I forgot to update release tags in this repo.
I see. Hopefully we'll all be using Rust crates one day. Until then, thanks for updating the tags!
