Thanks - I understand all of that, and am well aware how/where to get the updates. I was just looking for input from other coders regarding the flexability and durability of the codes compared to each other.. Frankly, I am not 100% impressed with the plugin system, and prefer the old 3.0.X ways of manually editing files/templates, but maybe that's just me. The database/site seems a lot more stable on 3.0.X as compared to 3.5.X, so I was hoping it was better in 3.6.X. Also- I am still curious as to what justifies a new product line. They are still supporting 3.5 at the same time they develop 3.6, so there must be something major to distinguish one from the other.
