There was some confusion because the roadmap had July and trac had August. Given that all of the features went into 2.6 early and that its been running this whole time on wordpress.com and lots of our personal blogs, a shorter beta seems doable. I think we can launch the beta cycle now, pound on it until the 7th and decide if it's ready. If not, pound it another week and decide of it's ready. I merge 2.6 to wordpress.com almost daily and get tons of feedback in an instant. I'm pretty confident in being able to finish off 2.6 in a few weeks. We won't be adding any more features to 2.6 so there's no need to linger for an extra month. Also, a July 2.6 release allows us to consider an early September 2.7 release that focuses on pulling in some of the GSoC work. That work would be too much to try to push into an early August 2.6 release. _______________________________________________ wp-testers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-testers
