I’d like to run the latest stable version of Discourse, but not install beta versions. Currently, I get an email from my Discourse instance any time there’s a new beta, but that’s not helpful – and there is no email for new stable versions. I tried subscribing to GitHub’s “releases” for the Discourse repo, but there I am getting no email at all (which is of course not your fault, but would have been a way to mitigate this).

Is there any way to configure the built-in update check if Discourse to only take newer stable releases into account? If not, is there any chance this option might be added in the future?
