Are there enough testers?! I do Test Builds almost every month, but I get absolutely *no* feedback... Very disappointing!

I am aware of that ;) But on the other hand it prevents to detect regressions in the release version...

Again, I do not disagree. But having a bigger audience increases the volume of feedback and obviously it increases the expectations of people participating in the testing... Are there enough developers/developer-time to correspond to such expectations?

Just for clarification: There are a lot of little things (double spaces, wrong icons in help, etc.) in the source code that we have to fix. From time to time Mechtilde creates a new language template (en-US) and imports it in Pootle.

RC0 (which does not exist) would imply that we are in a release process. And the different path is on purpose, so the "normal" profile is not touched by the Dev Build. Since desktop integration works on Windows (and macOS?) it would be better to fix it on Linux. A Dev Build is for broader testing by a bigger audience and I would like to do that more often. 4.2.0 must be thoroughly tested (after all the time) and there are still a lot of hurdles before we can release it.
