TF> No, I think v2.0 might humbly be called v1.54.

Exactly so. A typical company would have had TB! at about version 6 if
they'd done the sort of development and enhancements that I've seen
since using TB!. Ritlabs will do major changes and then move from
v1.xy to 1.x(y+1).

Sometimes I wonder if this is wise. It will make users uninterested in
upgrades or give them the impression that there's nothing much added
and that it's just a bug fix release or something. I tend to be like
that with software that I don't really follow because incremental
movement in version numbers are usually associated with only minor
enhancements.

TF> As already outlined by others, I believe that many (not few) of
TF> the major innovations promised for v2 have already been
TF> implemented in the current versions (including beta). If you get
TF> your climax from a version number, we are different. I get mine

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Software produces climax.

TF> [Remark: This last sentence is a lie. I do have a social life,

Yes, but does TB! give you climaxes?? ;-)

..

I concur with Marck and Januk that their development course has been
impressive though the progress of version numbering has been a MOST
humble one considering all the enhancements and improved functionality
since v1.31 when I came on board.

Of course, I'm supposed to be one of the biased ones as well, right. I
don't think so. If I saw another e-mail program that worked better for
me then I'd be *gone*.
