WPPA, when/where does it stop?

    There is an WP Photo Album Plus (wppa) update almost every fortnight now. Many times new features making it more complex, so many time bug fixes too.

    I wonder where this stops. It is a wunderful plugin and speaking for myself, it has sufficient functionality as it has now. And I guess that counts for 90% of its users too?

    As manager of a large computercenter I know that every change can be a threat for continuity. That is why I dislike the frequence of changes of plugins as wppa. I always hope that it does not affect the functions I use. And to be honnest, it never did until now but nevertheless.

    Is it selfish to say to the author, it is fine as it is now?

    I wonder where this stops.

    This stops when i die. I am 65 years of age now, so you can expect that within 35 years.

    If you do no longer want updates, change the version number in the header of the file …/wp-content/plugins/wp-photo-album-plus/wppa.php: change Version: 5.4.20 into Version: 99.99.99 and you will no longer be bothered with improvements and new bugs.

    I have made several sites. I make many changes all over the time. Not because of its necessity but because I like to be busy with it. So I think I am very much like the author of this plugin. A wonderful plugin indeed but used (by me) for about 10% of all it can do.

    Thanks for your suggestion, I will skip the next versions until v 6.2. has been published. WP itself changes too and I understand that this (any) plugin has then to follow.
