Hi Tomasz,
I think it is only a very few that is carrying like a pork chop. The
majority of us work things out for ourselves and have never said a word.

And that is what I really hate about this list. That people come up 
whinning without really checking things.
All "Syntax errors" problems were because people were using RESERVED 
words in their formulas. I provided the simple way to replace every 
reserved word

r.com/kb/2007/04/05/new-keywords-in-afl-and-
possible-conflict-with-user-defined-variables/

Still after repeating this 10 times people came here claiming that it 
is a bug in AmiBroker and that I should fix something. After another 
round of 20 e-mails it turned out that it was their formula.
But the damage was already made - people like you are afraid that beta 
is buggy and the image of product is destroyed.
Why - simply because people DID NOT follow the instructions given many 
times and did not bother to actually check if they use reserved words.

The same with watch lists - there may be some display / refresh issue 
still present but generally speaking it is working just fine PLUS
watch lists in old format are NOT affected so even if you do something 
you can revert back and your old watchlists will be untouched 
in old version.

All in all I am not going to run circles to convince anyone that this 
beta is as good as any previous versions.
What I am considering now is to STOP releasing betas to the public at 
all. It is causing too much stress for me and to much work answering 
all those unchecked bug claims.
I will probably move to closed-beta scheme where betas will be 
available only to selected people.
All the others will just get released official version.
