We are currently on RE 7.80 GiftMaker Pro Edition. I am looking into upgrading to 7.83 and would like some advice/information. I've looked at (skimmed) what 7.81, 7.82, and 7.83 upgrades have fixed, and 2 things pop into my head:
1. We would be unaffected by many of these fixes because we don't have/use the module/area it is associated with, and...
2. There don't appear to be any 'Security' type fixes. Are there none? Do they have them and just not list them? Am I missing them? (I haven't read them word for word so that is possible)
All in all, I would probably still do the upgrade to 7.83 with the latest patch, BUT then I took a look at the outstanding issues list and got a little worried. At 144 pages and an approzimate average of 5 issues per page, that's about 720 issues for 7.83. Even my wife will tell you that's more issues than I have.
So there are some serious reservations on my part for upgrading. We are a small college and have less than 30k in our database. In fact, I am the only person that currently enters gifts and does the acknowledgements, as well as database cleaning and writing out our policies and procedures. 7.80 has worked OK so far except for a few glitches that occur now and then. Anything you know and can tell me would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
