Title: Charter Members have Beta 3
Post by: Grudge on March 15, 2008, 01:53:09 PM
All,

Just a quick note to say that we've got Beta 3 out to our Charter Members. We'll be making the beta public in the near future once we've ironed out any reported bugs. Until then sit back and hold tight, as the public beta is not far off now ;)

Mainly bug fixes, lots and lots of bug fixes :D

There's a couple of other bits like better anti-spam stuff (You can now setup question/answer challenges as well as CAPTCHA), but nothing particularly note worthy to be honest :)

With respect, did you read the initial message.

A public beta of 2.0 will be released before December 31st 2394 :P

Or if you want a better time, the developer did comment on this ;)

SleePy, I have a feeling 2.0 Final will be released by then. Hopefully unless we run into some problems. Dang I hope that my Great-great-great-great.... grandchild isn't on the SMF Team working on 2.0 at that time but rather like SMF 133.7 :-X.

I think its bad enough if you plan for your great-great-great grandchild to be a doc writer for SMF :P

Nah. We all know you'll just pass your current position down the generations.  You, and your children and your childrens children will all be Doc Coordinators. :P

What is it so funny in that that makes you laugh? Please do share it with the rest of us.

FYI, the public release I believe will be the newest beta

The quote function is working wrong or is my problem? In this topic I saw some quoted posts but appears very strange...
