Hey Daniel,
When I looked at the ChangeLog, it does not seem to indicate that the fix is there.
http://openser.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/openser/branches/1.2/ChangeLog
ChangeLog is usually left behind and updated just before the release.
Should I be concerned about this?
No
Should I just use the daily snapshot instead? How stable is the daily snapshot?
Daily snapshot is more or less what SVN 1.2 branch shows at the moment when the snapshot is done. So using SVN will guarantee the access to latest stable code. Snapshots and SVN of branch 1.2 should be the most stable in the 1.2.x release. There are no other commits to branch 1.2 but bug fixes.
We publish daily snapshots just as backup when SVN is not available, otherwise SVN is advisable to use if you can use subversion.
Cheers, Daniel
Tim

Hello,
daily snapshots are enabled now for 1.2.x as well:

Hi Tim,
Check the download page from openser website: http://www.openser.org/mos/view/Download/:
The command that you need to run: svn co http://openser.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/openser/branches/1.2 openser
Make sure that you have svn installed.

Hi Daniel,
I have run into a leak in 1.2 and I assume it is the same one that Ovidiu ran into. I see in your response that it was "backported to 1.2", but I'm not sure how to get the fix. When I look at the SVN repository at: http://www.openser.org/pub/openser/latest-1.2.x/, the date is earlier than the date of your email exchange so I don't think the fix has
been
added there. Can you please let me know how I can get it?
thanks, Tim

Hi Daniel,
Can we backport this one to 1.2?
already done, two minutes after the commit in trunk.
