You mae it sound like nobody could build stand-alones with the old one. Granted, the new standalone builder is easier to use and has more features. But to call a rewrite and new interface a bugfix ?
I can personally attest to this one. Monte Goulding did a ground-up
rewrite which not only offers new features but also provides radically
improved convenience and performance. Among other things you can now do
one-click instant builds.
The list that Geoff gave out sounded like bug fixes to me, but I'm happy to hear that may not be the case. And who knows, I might even be happy to pony up $299 or whatever the upgrade is going to cost.
But more important than the cost of the upgrade, this overly long thread could have been truncated if there had been more communication from RunRev or those of you in the know. Instead of sending pithy comments off list, those same people could have simply pointed me/us at the 2.2 release notes. And then we could be having a substantive discussion rather than ranting about things that we can only guess about.
If I were running RunRev, I would want to know why it took more than 100 messages, many of which were unnecessarily critical of my company, before I gave out any real information about the release. Maybe it's purely coincidental there has been a "lack of communication" thread going on at the same time as this one, but then again maybe not.
