Re: Is there a schedule for the next release?
I don't think that having only writing functionality (or the fact that creating a new drawing removes old one's) are necessarily a problem. AFAICS, the issues are a) some files failing to read, and b) some files being corrupted on re-write, both of which are obvious regressions from some of our previous releases. However, with all the new functionality in, a couple of dev releases on the way would certainly help.

I wouldn't mind doing a development release. 3.0 alpha1 or something like that. There's no reason why that should take too much time and would give people behind firewalls a chance to test some of the new features.

RE: Is there a schedule for the next release?
I second that. People MUST just be aware that this is a development release. -Original Message- From: Glen Stampoultzis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 19 May 2005 09:00 AM To: POI Developers List Subject: Re: Is there a schedule for the next release?
