What does this mean, members not verified email address?

This beta release has new features? If yes how many?

Yes. The issue was mostly related to third party login methods that don't provide an email address (steam). When the end user provides an address they need to validate it

Please IPS, make sure every maintenance update contains fixed ALL Commerce issues reported earlier. This is product used commercially, it should have "no" known issues unresolved for long.

I agree. I hope IPS focuses on fixing known issues for the abandoned Commerce module and adding new suggested and needed features.

@OptimusBain, maybe we just push them too much and they simply "avoid" it? 😄 Telling that from own experience, I also do not like "pain is the ass" customers, however sometimes must become "the pain" myself.
