To upgrade or not... that is the question!

Hi All,

I am on 9.209-8, and when 9.3 first came out, I went to upgrade, then remembered that Sophos UTM updates are usually half baked on first release, since then, I have seen newer versions of 9.3 coming out with various bug fixes etc....

Then the other day I noticed that the latest firmware is 9.210-20  and my UTM no longer shows 9.3***xx as an update option (in webadmin up2date).

So what's going on - 9.3 pulled, should I wait till Feb / March when its working? I heard that 9.210-20 is a major death dealing murderous serial killing psychopathic war mongering kitten torturing megalomaniac of a patch? So probably should avoid that too?

Your experience would be more than welcome.

    I would wait until 9.304 is out. Stay with 9.209 meanwhile.
