This thread is hard to follow - so apologies if this is already posted. Maybe there should be a new one per release?
That almost makes sense. I was tempted to make a new thread every major or minor release update (The version numbers are Major:Minor:Micro 3.2.1 being a micro update and 3.2.0 being a minor update). However that would just mean I'd have to monitor and respond on multiple forum threads. Having all the discussion in one place, even if it is only historically organised, means at least everyone knows where to look or ask for help.

As an aside, major version upgrades are reserved for major hardware support changes (eg going to 3 for ASICs), minor version upgrades are for major internal software changes (eg changes to driver design, new features such as stratum etc) and micro version updates are for mostly bugfixes to stabilise a minor release branch.

What do other people think about having multiple forum threads?
