Hey Matt Interesting point. Agree on the "final" stuff.
We gonna use the milestones in development phase, but we need to build a product and cannot spend too much time on fixing bugs inside of a framework (so we not gonna use the trunk). I would like to, because there are interesting developments going on inside machII, but it's not possible ;) We would like to go live, with a final release of MachII and not a milestone release. That's why the question about the release date.

I couldn't really care less if it's "final" or not. -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] For more options and to unsubscribe, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/mach-ii-for-coldfusion?hl=en SVN: http://svn.mach-ii.com/machii/ Wiki / Documentation / Tickets: http://trac.mach-ii.com/machii/
