Well, possibly, but you may well have to redo things as the packaging changes, so it might be more work than it's worth in the end. ;) > While I still think we should wait until all packaging work is > completed before officially deploying and supporting an instance, I'm > hoping to avoid waiting for packaging work to complete, deploying a > test instace, then discovering some other use-case (or upstream > functionality) roadblock. > > Any thoughts/concerns with this idea? Well, the other side of the coin is that you install now, get it all working, then have to just re-install and get it working again when the packaging is done. Of course there might not be too many changes from the packaging side that require redoing things. I'm not sure where the packaging is sitting at this point. So, I would say: * How far out does the packaging look? Is it getting close? or still much to do? * How close is whatever you would install today to what the final packaging will be? Just the same thing but split out into seperate packages? kevin
