Do you still remember, that since last official release have been > fixed [...] You have to admit that a large number of these bugfixes is actually "getting things back to work how they used to" because you're working on internal changes with unicode support and whatnot. But, sorry Val, these don't qualify as bug fixes for me. But in reality, thats not the point why a lot of people are sad now, again. An additional test version together with the announcement that it will be the release version (despite known bugs and wishes, but to satisfy the public need for a new stable release, just as VV stated - which is completely ok for me) has been denied to your fellow community of loyal beta testers once more - and thats sad. You rely on the community for catching bugs for you, you have to give some trust back in return or you'll slowly scare away these people. I sometimes have the feeling that the betatester community does care a lot more about quality that Ritlabs itself does! I repeat my proposal that there should be a more intensive dialogue between Ritlabs and the users, at least the beta testers. Just like it has been proposed that beta testers are asked if they think the planned release version (RC1) is OK on NUMEROUS occasions. Everyone knows that "fix all bugs" is an utopic claim, but being entirely ignored is no way to deal with the people that do so much for you in their spare time. -- Best regards, Alexander (http://www.neurowerx.de - ICQ 238153981) True science teaches, above all, to doubt and, to be ignorant. -- Miguel de Unamuno ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.62.03 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
