However, since we have to plug in a number of fairly heavy duty back end
systems, some of the up and coming features of Gonzales would be excellent
for our needs. We have tried to parallel some of the testing we've been
doing on 3.0.2 with 4.0, but we've had to halt it as too many features
don't
seem to work without tweaking or fixing the 4.0 code. This was all the way
from installation to trying to create simple content items. It seems to be
in a very "alpha" state at this point. Is there going to be a cut-off
point
for a stable beta or release candidate?


Are you keeping up with the updates on SVN?  Jeff and I have been fixing a
bunch of issues recently to do with core code changes and the additional
functionality (Libraries mostly) and Geoff and co have been putting in a lot
of updates for the form tools.

The farcrycms library is a work in progress and I'm looking at converting a
lot of the old 3.x functionality to use the new FC4 form tools and make sure
that it is completely pulled out of the core code and separated out into the
library. Work has come to a stop on that on my part because of Xmas/New
Year/Arrival of my newborn son on Thursday last, but I'll get back to that
soon.


We have invested a lot of time in testing 3.0.2, and are pretty much
convinced it will suit our needs as-is. Can we progress with 3.0.2 and
then
migrate to 4.0? Regrettably, we need to shift resource onto our backend
systems now and we can no longer afford the time to keep trawling through
4.0 code just to get some things working , especially since the
documentation on it is still very sparse.


Do you have any specific questions that you need answers to that can be a
written up in the docs?

PS. Has anybody developed a content versioning module? (keeping track of all
changes to content and containers) Drop a line on the thread.... we'd like
some advice before we do one ourselves


Farcry already has versioning built into most of the types in the backend,
but I haven't seen any versioning for containers.

Stephen
