I found that the Announcements for new releases are scattered around this site, Twitter, the blog and very old ones are on google groups. I would like to be notified of new releases. What is the primary channel?
Thank you!

Hi,
Thanks for that questions, It’s been a bit chaotic in the past i must admit.
Here’s what we currently settled on:
You can check and review what has been added to each version in there
admin > settings > system info > Check for updates link
We also have an announcement email + twitter + blog campaign always after a major release. So e.g when 4.16 is current version and we release 4.17 we do the above. However we do this only when a release is stable, so usually we announce when 4.17.2 or 4.17.3 is out containing stable improvements.
In Summary, if you want to check for a release go to docs, or use the Check for updates link
, or wait for a blog entry on our website and announcement email to ugprade to a release we know has been battle tested and proven for “longer time”
Hope that is clear
p.s 4.17.X release announcement will be this week (a while after release has been pushed to download servers)
