Hi,

Any idea why Delta Chat for Android version 1.1.2 is labelled “Latest release” on GitHub while version 1.6.2 already exists?

Cheers, Gerry

yes, this is a bit weird.

the reason is that we do no longer use [https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-android/releases](https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-android/releases) for releases at all, there are also no apk or so any longer.

for releases, we use [https://get.delta.chat](https://get.delta.chat)

but i agree, that it is weird that only old releases are shown on github, maybe we should just delete all releases (then, only tags would be shown) or add a “pseudo-release” that points to the new page.

however, for now, i’ve flagged the latest tag as being a release - however, i fear this will be forgotten again as the tags are just created by `git tag v1.2.3` and this does not create a “release” on github.

Thanks for taking care, I thought that the new releases were for testing.

Cheers, Gerry

for testing, we have nightlies meanwhile, however, all of that is on [https://get.delta.chat](https://get.delta.chat) , for information about a specific release, see the linked changelogs (the releases only duplicate these information)

i meanwhile have converted the most recent github-release-tags to pure-tags - this finally convinced github to show things on [https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-android/releases](https://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-android/releases) intended and maybe less confusing.
