Drizzy Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Is the final going to come out in June as planned or not? Are we going from RC2 straight to the FINAL?
TrixieTang Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Sorry, but I have to say it... The official release date for IPB 3 final is When it's ready™Like who didn't see that coming? :rolleyes:
Drizzy Posted June 16, 2009 Author Posted June 16, 2009 I just need an estimate here lol. Also are we going on from RC2 to final or to RC3?
Adriano Faria Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 There will be no RC3. Tracker says bugs fixed on 3.0.0 And yes, probably it's coming till the end of this month.
SamGranger Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Erm, I would of thought that an RC3 would be released with the bugfixes - and if no other bugs come in, it will turn into final.
Lee Craven Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Does it really matter rc3/final? The boards work well now, pretty much minor bugs! Release numbers are nothing special. As long as it's functional that's all that matters imo.
edivad Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Lol you right. But my user would kill me if they read "RC"
Rοb Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 I have decided that my mid-year resolution is to not let these threads irritate me any more, life is too short :P [/off-topic]

But my user would kill me if they read "RC" In all reality why do your users care if the board is RC? Hide the build info and just have the license info showing, pretty simple fix for that :)

That is what 3.0.1 would be for :thumbsup:

Very important rule of programming: There is ALWAYS another bug. Doesn't matter how long the product has been available and worked on, there is ALWAYS another bug to be fixed.

Release numbers are nothing special. As long as it's functional that's all that matters imo. I personally think that there should be an RC3, with the number of bugs reported in RC2. But oh well. I already planned all along that when Final comes out, I will grab it, do test installs and test upgrades, so that when it comes time that I'll do the actual upgrade on the live board, it'll be a near perfect upgrade (referring to how I handle it). Also, I won't install Final for a few days, giving time for others to install and find remaining bugs that weren't uncovered by previous releases (and lack of a full audience), so that if there happens to be a major bug discovered, I can avoid it and just wait for v3.0.1 (and then repeat the process). As Magneto said in X3, "In chess, the pawns go first."
Mesmer Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 at this stage the big differece between rc and final is support. That's the only reason I'm waiting for the final realease. And I will, just as Wolfie, wait a few days after the final has been released just in case a major bug crawls out of it's dark corner.
Rob - Top Web Designs Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Payment Gateways aren't going to be incorporated until final are they? So for a lot of people like me the RC's aren't even an option.
bfarber Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Our intentions are to go to final after RC2. That is, unless something drastic happens between now and then. The bugs being reported now are largely isolated issues, or minor issues. There are very very few "major" problems being reported now. As Tom pointed out above, there is always 3.0.1, which we anticipate will be out pretty shortly after 3.0.0 to resolve issues reported in the final. There will always be bugs. We could release RC3, people *will* find bugs and we will fix them, and then what? Should we release an RC4? Say we did - same thing would happen. We'd forever be in RC stages if we don't take the plunge eventually.
Stuart 4 Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 i think there will be doing final test here next week :thumbsup:
