There's one simple answer to this question: It just because nobody really works on the code. When did you see the last commit that closed a bug?
Second: releasing means testing, cleaning up, packaging, distributing, writing an announcement, etc. I don't want to do all that stuff every time I change two lines of code. But this is not the point. The main reason why we're still stuck with 0.1-rc1 is that there are no active developers. Unfortunately I hardly have time to work on the project and the few minutes that are left, I mostly spend with writing answers to (stupid) requests. I don't say it's all the other's fault. I seriously underestimated the meaning of starting an open source project. It's far more work than just writing some lines of code and copy them on a server. Sorry for the bad "service" and the disappointing growth of the project but I had to shift my priorities away from RoundCube and this situation will remain for the next two years :-( In other words: everybody is welcome to take over the project lead and release more often. ~Thomas 2007/7/22, Farkas Levente <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
hi, why don't roundcube has regular release like 0.1, 0.2 etc? everybody know it's a beta software and will care according to that. but even in that case it's 0.1rc1 since almost a half a year now! wouldn't it be better to make more regular release, users can test it and comment on it. until it's reach the 1.0 version everybody know it's beta software and use only care. but even if the development moving it seems to standing. as one of the lesson to learn from opensource project "release early". just my 2c. -- Levente "Si vis pacem para bellum!"
