i just noticed that for those who buy/upgrade Revolution in February the package comes with a free set of icons (http://miryesoftware.ning.com/). Unfortunately I renewed my license just 3 days before February, so no icons for me and I will continue using open source Tango and Crystal icon libraries. However it would be nice to hear that from 2.9 or 3.0 onwards any paying customer would receive a "default" library of icons with each Revolution download :-). While it is not a big chalenge for me anymore, I guess it would be very encouraging for any new customer new in software development with Rev to have a complete set of tools to start learning and working with at once.

All the best!

I'd say the 2.9 release is very close....the DP-4 beta rocks with just a few things to fix.

This release has a lot more value of a .1 release (the numbering system was redone to accomodate the future features in the next big release 3.0).

for all practical purposes there are so many fixes and new features addes since 2.8.1 that one can't really pigeonhole the progress made by calling it a "point-release". 2.9 will be the most solid, feature packed release yet.

Besides, sooner or later you'll want 3.0 which is expected perhaps by the middle of this year. (Remember 'Revolution Live' was rescheduled to accomodate the announcement, if not release of version 3.0.)

The stuff that's coming is awesome! Due to an NDA, I can't mention what -- and if one is really curious then one will have to go to Las Vegas this summer. -- or join the beta testers.


Do we have a date for the 2.9 release? I am anxiously waiting!
