What is the best way to test out new versions of Products without
breaking an existing setup? Should I simply "version" the current
working version, then install new stuff to test, etc, or is there any
easy way to have products "ORIGINAL" and "ORIGINAL-2" (which is what
I'd prefer, for stability comparisons)
(in this case, I'm curious about the palm-syncing features of WP
1.1alpha for our home server, but can't afford to break our current
WWW-based email access...?)
Or should I just copy Data.fs and manually revert in case of accident?
Advice appreciated!
best,
-tony
