Often for a new release the code starts out with a lot of change and then gradually stabilizes until release. It would be good to know about how stable the code is. I realize that there are no guarantees and I don't expect any. I just want an honest estimation of how stable/complete it is. Do the basic use cases work? Does everything but component X work? Is there a TODO list? There are some things in 1.3 that I would like to have (like the new rolling classes) so I'll give it a shot. BTW I submitted a bugzilla issue for a new file but I haven't gotten any response. Did I do anything wrong?

I don't think we could _guarantee_ that an interface might change, but I would think that it is incredibly unlikely at this point. The only foreseeable changes would be additional objects/components or methods. But again, I can't give you that 100% money back guarantee. You can always look at the new things in 1.3 that you are interested in (new Rolling architecture), have a look at the test cases that Ceki has written for them and make an evaluation as to how stable it looks. My vote would be that this area is looking very good. You can then do your own testing, and provide us any feedback. You can even make the fixes and send us the patches from your experience! :) cheers, Paul Smith --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
