every hour is a new dolphin available - mystar_twenty - 03-15-2011
is it nessecary to download the newest version all the time? i dont know ;\
RE: every hour is a new dolphin available - Xtreme2damax - 03-15-2011
No. It makes more sense to make builds available for download that contain major changes such as audio, video, core, performance improvements that affect overall emulation. You don't need to download builds that contain minor stuff such as wiki edits, compilation fixes (unless you compile builds), changes that affect other os's/platforms especially if you don't use that particular os/platform, minor gui changes etc..
Downloading every revision is just a waste of time and bandwidth. I typically only upgrade and offer new builds when there are noticeable improvements.

Translations updates
Minos changes on GUI
Fix error 1234 on OSX(if you use Windows)
