With the exception of the regressions, I disagree. More critical bugs reported does not mean a decrease in quality, just that more people are using D. Older bugs are usually still open for a reason. Either they're difficult to solve, or they aren't particularly important. Either way, I doubt it's worth delaying the beta/release once the regressions are fixed. There are plenty of improvements that should be available to everybody using D now. _______________________________________________ dmd-beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.puremagic.com/mailman/listinfo/dmd-beta
