Request: change default track for nats charm to 2/stable

Hey,

We would like to request that the default track for the NATS charm be changed from latest/stable to 2/stable.

Thanks.

Gary

Sorry for the extra ping. Would someone be able to help with this?

Hi @gary-wzl77 ,

I have updated the default tracks to 2.

Thanks!

However, when we checked the web UI, we noticed that the default channel is set to 1, even though such a channel has never existed.

Could you double-check if that’s correct, or if it’s a bug in the web UI?

Hi Gary,

Looks like the 1 track was set as the default in our system so not a UI bug. I’ve gone ahead and updated the 2 track as the default.

On the other hand, seems like the 1 track was never requested in the first place. Would you like me to remove it?

Best,

Hyuk

Thanks for this!

A: Please go ahead. We aren’t planning to publish to the 1 track right now. If needed, we’ll let you know.

Thanks

Gary
