It's a long story, but the version numbering got messed up (I can fill you in offlist if you really want to know), so 2.9 is a new upgrade post-2.8.1. > Now, assuming 2.9 is "one step beyond" ["the heavy, > heavy monster show" - Oh Dear, showing my age] 2.8.1 I > am surprised that there seem to be no Betas of 2.9 > forthcoming. Well, 2.8.1 just got released a few weeks ago, so give them some time to get past an internal alpha stage, will ya? ;-) One of the issues many of us had with pre-2.8.1 releases was that the testing cycle was too fast. 2.8.1 was a good, thorough testing cycle, and I hope they continue with that trend. > In the light of the recent series of rather repetitive > crits of 2.8.1 I would have expected the beta-testing > to continue: and I, for one, was already with a couple > of 'bitchy' tests to run on the betas. It will continue, I'm sure... just be patient. :-) Ken Ray Sons of Thunder Software, Inc.
