A reasonably "working" CVS thing

[dkklein]

You still DON'T know and unless You are part of the development team You are in no position to make a realistic guess on the release time.

Let the phpBB group announce possible release times instead of GUESSING. Yes I know what it means to guess and Yes I also know what CVS is and yes I have the latest CVS running on a test board and I judge by the state of it and the roadmap that there is still a LONG way before it is relased.

And Yes I also recognise arrogant all-knowing persons.

Last time through, the RC phase took from December to April, I believe, so if history repeats, we're looking at a 5-month beta/RC period. Now, that could shrink a bit, or grow, but it's a reasonable estimate. Second, they're approaching M-2. and I would personally think 2-3 months for each additional milestone, which means at worst, another 11 months. That seems drearingly high to me, and somehow I get the feeling that the next two milestones will move by comparitively quickly.

As you can see, I seem to have some kind of method. Getting ready for the eventually impending "Guess the Release Date" thread.

dkklein, my exchange of ideas ends here with you. You don't and won't get it. I can guess whenever or wherever I want for a release date, I'm not announcing to people that it will be released then, I'm guessing for my own person that it could be done by then. Take it, leave it, I don't care

As for Aexoden, indeed, good method.

I also think than M3-M4 will be approached faster than the previous milestones, since from what I read M3 it's just final touches and tweaks to things already implemented within M1-M2, and attachments already made it on M2... only thing that could take some time is the initial overhaul of UCP [already present, yet not functioning]

M4 will only focuss on private messaging [so far], so it would go very fast.

Then Beta, then RC's, yeah...a few more months. 11 ? I find that way too high. I would say 7 tops.

Well what is it then? Before You said 4 months now You say 7 months?

Hey guys! Who cares?! I fell for reading all of that jargon in hopes of finding something interesting.

Indeed, seems a rather pointless argument when I don't even have a specific target date in mind at present

That is exactly why I questioned Kuma's post. I won't speculate on a release time and trust that psoTFX will tell us in due time.
