It's very frustrating to keep watching bug reports getting fixed for
versions I can't use.

There are 41 bug fixes in 2.1.2 many of which bit me, even some show
stoppers. 30 of those affect the latest release 2.1.1.

So I was wondering, is there any technical reason why I shouldn't use
2.1.2 in a production environment, otherwise why isn't 2.1.2 released
if it's nothing but bug fixes? What if I want to use it anyway, how
can I compile it?

Thank you,
Cosmin.
