Hi, I am the developer of PdfDing. One thing I am not sure about is the frequency of my releases. What do you folks prefer in self-hosted projects? More releases in order to get new features as fast as possible or fewer releases with bigger feature additions?

Well usually the opposite happens. People make many releases and outsource the testing to unsuspecting users.

This is IMHO fine if you clearly mark these releases as release candidates or such, so that people can make their own risk judgement. But usually that isn't the case and one minor version looks like any other unless you have a closer look at the actual changes in the code.
