Hi Guys, what about stop arguing about who's doing what - where less than two month past the last release - having 5.6 out now is straight forward.
We - as the "community" should help Mitel on by reporting bugs and testing beta. I think that will get us much faster closer to the next upcoming version with some nice and very recommended new features. Report the bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and discuss the stuff on a technology basis on the devinfo.

If the community were developing the software, community involvement in scheduling *might* be appropriate. But it isn't. Never forget that Mitel NSSG is a commercial venture of Mitel Networks Corporation. > As open source goes, Mitel's approach is somewhat closed. Our approach policy is not materially different from RedHat's: http://www.geocrawler.com/mail/msg.php3?msg_id=6720876&list=84 Yes, they have a public Bugzilla and a visible RawHide release, but: 1. they have a very much larger install base, and much more technically competent beta community 2. their development staff is orders of magnitude larger than ours. Now if you will excuse me, I'll get back to fixing bugs. -- Charlie Brady [EMAIL PROTECTED] Lead Product Developer Network Server Solutions Group http://www.e-smith.com/ Mitel Networks Corporation http://www.mitel.com/ Phone: +1 (613) 592 5660 or 592 2122 Fax: +1 (613) 592 1175 -- Please report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (only) to discuss security issues Support for registered customers and partners to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives by mail and http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo%40lists.e-smith.org -- Please report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (only) to discuss security issues Support for registered customers and partners to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives by mail and http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo%40lists.e-smith.org
