1. I install it on a local copy and test installation, deinstallation, template edits and so on
2. I install it on a live copy (testforum) and let selected users (usually the staff) test the new functionality and documention I created or adapted thoroughly.
3. I install the mod in my live environment

I don't like my site being a beta-test-area for anything so these steps almost guarantee that nothing will go wrong with my live site as nobody else can and will since you cannot predict how a mod will act on your site with probably some other mods.

From that point of view I can't understand why this mod should go to the mod-graveyard. It's up to the site-admin to prevent problems with his live environment.

Kind regards,
