Karen, First, please call me Slau.
Second, Digidesign never guarantees that anything in a beta will appear in the final release. Now, listen carefully: I have no reason to believe the changes were not implemented. I have every reason to believe they are. All I said was that, until someone confirms it with the commercial release of 8.0.4, we can't say with absolute certainty that everything is as we've expected. What did you learn as a journalist? Check your facts. That's all I'm suggesting. Once again, all I'm saying is that we're talking as if it's a done deal but I have yet to hear that someone has installed 8.0.4. slau On Jun 18, 2010, at 12:31 PM, Karen Lewellen wrote: > Jerry, > A beta release as you just noted, is *not* a commercial release. to my mind > commercial releases are official. > If digi backs this, then why have they not told you, firmly, that the changes > exist? > > Karen > > On Fri, 18 Jun 2010, Slau Halatyn wrote: > >> Karen, >> >> I'm not sure what you mean by "official release."
