Final v2 is in development. The process is - and this is the deep
thought of TB!beta - to first develop Functions that work. No need to
explain how users would react when a SW-Version is released with a lot
of bugs. So joining the TB!beta gives to everyone the chance to give
in his thought and participate in testing so as to help in bringing
out a stable v2.

BTW - beta39 is so good that you could make use of it as your v1.53o
with the difference that it has added functions and features.

Only your participation in the TB!beta list can answer this.

there is a constant development process and the people at RITLABS work
very hard to a final v2.

No way Yuki san. Don't ever think of it. TB! is much more used on this
planet as you may dream of - belive me.

Just my thought :-)

If no one in this list can answer you this you should contact RITLabs
directly. Stefen and Maxim are very open an communicative and you
would for sure get the most competent answer.

But a fan is also a person who does not expect that *his* function is
available immediately but works toward his goal. You have all
opportunities by joining the different ML and Communicating with the
developers to reach your aim.
And TB! is very International (read my words above)!


> And sadly, there *are* alternatives.

My comment had a Smile ...

> They may not be as great as TB! [...]

ACK!
