Duh! Thank's for warning me.
Remember, though, that it was the same way back with just betas
These are the bugs that are fixed in the latest interim release,

Thanks - that would be a great help.
Typically, beta testers come to expect an extra level of support, since they
are sticking their heads out for the developer's benefit. To
If I may add my fifteen cents here...
It's only knowing that there is undocumented functionality available in
an intermediate release to a beta that seems to be the issue. Normally
most wouldn't even know about the features until the next full beta was
released. Personally I'm happy to see
I'm reading this thread, (I think it's come up before) and I'm really not
sure what all the concern is about. I understand documentation for the
current (release) version is posted on the Declude site, and Scott as well
as many of the other participants on the list (did I mention Scott?) do
I guess all I'm really saying is:
When Beta 1.1.1 is going on (with the new features to be tested documented
in the RelNotes), and at i25 you decide it's time for a few new features,
then let's call that new development level not 1.1.1-i26, but rather Beta
1.1.2 with matching RelNotes.

Simply put, a link for a change log on the site that talks about
interims/beta releases cant hurt anyone.
True. And we have one for betas and released versions (at

However, part of the idea of the interim releases is to bypass the
documentation to

Officially, there is a 1.76 Beta that started at 19-Sep-2003.
This document no longer reflects the feature set that I get when I

Andy,
When a new beta comes out we test it on our backup mail servers. They get
the least amount of production traffic. If the beta is stable after a

One thing that we don't do is run interim release at all unless there is a
