The last few days have been very exciting to me; quite a few annoying bugs were fixed, with some of these fixes coming from new contributors.
As has been the pattern before, fewer and fewer people are trying each consecutive beta so I think we are approaching the point of diminishing returns. So what are we waiting for? - documentation: Willem is traveling and will take a few more days to finish things off and given how critical documentation is for the end users I'll happily wait for him and give us more time to maybe squish a bug here and there. - Qt 5.5.1: it will be released any day now (and that has been the case for several weeks). In the end I'll build against a late RC if I have to, but hopefully Thiago will bring news from the Qt conference he's attending this week to give us a better idea. Translations are looking good. Obviously Willem's changes will trigger subsequent changes to the translated manuals. Sadly, the Russian translation of the manual hasn't been updated at all - Sergey, should we drop this? I know this is an insane amount of work... The translations of the application continue to progress. Apparently Guido found at least one string that we forgot but overall we're in great shape. Of the popular (based on my statistics) languages Chinese and Dutch translations are still lacking a bit and (to a lesser degree, just a few strings missing) Swedish. And of course I need to work on the website which is in a rather pityful state. I finally finished the complete switch to https this week, but the content is seriously embarassing. A friend who is a professional writer offered to help me a bit with getting at least the landing page into better shape. I'll do new screenshots for that as well. But those of you who wonder what they could do to help... read the web site, find issues and inconsistencies, help add more entries to the FAQ. And of course, test Subsurface. Keep testing. And then test some more.
