Hey Greg,
Sorry I didn't mean to use beta. You are indeed correct, as usual, they
are releases. :)
I will state again, that while I appreciate that differing versions of
httpd and/or subversion (and the libraries it uses) is far from a a
trivial task for us. This will essentially mean migrating and replacing
the current EU slave to bring it into line with the US master. You may
recall that the US master move (and therefore migration) was forced upon
us when eris died over a year ago now.
This forced move meant the host was put on a different OS, which
introduced the disparity between the EU and US today.
Fixing this is something that Infra would consider a project piece. i.e.
not something we can just slot in this week. Given the projects on the
table already, and the skills in Infra to to do the work being tied up
in other projects; it is going to be weeks before there is any available
cycles to address it.
I understand this might not be what you want to hear, but it is a fact
of where we are in terms of standardising, and automating everything.
With all that being said, I suspect you would not want us to deploy 1.9
onto a single host (US) leaving the EU slave where it is now?
