Firmware 6.2.5 Where is any information on Netgear?
So I login to my ReadyNAS and it notifies me that 6.2.5 is avaliable. After all the screwups that 6.2.2 created, I thought I'd at least read the release notes before I blind update a running device....

Edit: beaten again, but I was right!
I agree with you that it should not be happening. I do think Netgear are making an effort to tidy up these issues, it's not perfect no, but the fundamentals of their devices are still strong and the vast majority of users have a good experience. Users are far more likely to post about problems than about expected behaviour. My experience with Netgear when things do go wrong is that they are quick to respond and they fix things.
One possibility is that 6.2.5 is being released. Perhaps wait 12-24 hours and see if there is a notice here on the forums.
I'm sure someone from Netgear will answer your question soon, they may want to look at your logs.
