With the project's recent release of v5.0-RC3, it's being a long way since the first BETA1 release in April. 3 months into the making.
Short summary of important bugs. Drag-n-Drop bugs make the usual headlines: Drag-n-Drop: VM deadlock on network share copy Drag-n-Drop: Linux/GNOME guest-to-host fails Drag-n-Drop: Guest-to-Host fails above 200 MB (Windows-to-Windows) Drag-n-Drop: KDE4 Linux guests still broken; Guest-to-Host Drag-n-Drop: Doesn't work on Mac OS X hosts at all ...and a bunch of regressions: [Regression in RC3] VB 5.0 RC3 and Mac OS X 10.10.4 [Regression from 4.3.14] [PATCH] 3D acceleration: Aero flicker on Linux/NVIDIA hosts Regression: host network connectivity loss when closing VM [Regression] VMM: openSUSE 13.2 boot failed on Windows (and Fedora 22) +AC'97 codec on Mac OS X issues (Linux guests) ...This v5.0 release cycle already earned the dubious honor of longest-beta-release-ever. Three months in the making, but v5.0-still feels unfinished. The good news: I hope to try it on some server hardware soon. (Intel Xeon Haswell 24-way vCPU (12 cores+HT) + 288 GB of RAM, and see how far it goes... on Linux) That said, v5.0 is improving...
