Well, any change we should aware of, bigstar?

when you do liveupdate, there's link to see what's new...why not read it?

Kibe · 10-01-2002, 02:44 PM

Sorry, bit I missed that when updating...

Is there some other place where I can find those infos?

I think something about those changes should be posted here, like in this Topic about RC3 and Build 876. Just an ideia...

Only public changes are mentioned publically.
Build 880 is for registered users only.

Why don't you make thi beta forum password protected so that you can post changelogs here without unregistered users seeing it. Those of us who have registered may not want to spend time downloading something that only fixes one or two issues we don't have. It's not a big deal for me since I'm on a T3 at work, but the modem users would certainly want that.

I was hoping to see these changes as well. I missed it too. Why does it matter is these changes/updates are shown to the public? Maybe they'll see what they are missing and register.

It was done that way merely because it's less work for me to do.

If you guys clicked view whats new prior to download you could of saved us all a lot of time.

It's that itchy trigger finger! Sorry.

excuse me, but no. you agreed to beta test this software! meaning you should run every version that's released to make sure that all bugs are fixed. if you want to upgrade only when you feel like it go back to using 835 and wait untill 2.0 is final.
running ancient beta version and then reporting problems with it doesn't help us.

Sorry for not looking to this before dowloading, bigstar..

My suggestion is that you maybe place a link in Help/What's new?

Then you would save time for those like me who can't wait to have the brand new Build running. And I agree with you that you don't need to make always public announcements about those new versions...

Excuse me, but maybe you should consider the plight of users on modems when someone releases a flurry of updates (I don't think I've seen it happen here yet, but comapnies do it all the time). You can't expect me to download it several times in one day if there were a bunch of releases for minor fixes. I'm not going to report bugs in old versions, but that doesn't mean I'm going to download the update the instant you release it. Your software isn't that important (even though it is good).
