top-posting is evil, but anyway I beleive we should release 1.2 with the current svn 1.2 code It's not perfect, it's got a few known bugs, but it works We can obviosly fix all those bugs before we release, but it'll probably take another year or so, and we'll lose the current users, or quite a few of them. Some people are anxious about using a 'release candidate' and will rather go for a 'stable' * 1.4 instead of testing 'unstable' code from openpbx. We've been working with this for a while, and as far as I can see (we have two boxes with opbx rc3 in production) it's stable enough.
Can we please release this now? I think it will be better for our communuty to just do so, and then do the debugging afterwards. We can run all sorts of tests we like, but it will take far much time to find those bugs while testing alone, compared to the set of users that may want to use this if we really make a relelase roy On 24. jan. 2007, at 05.53, Marc Olivier Chouinard wrote: > Im proposing some changes from comments from different members, > plus questions.
