Berkeley have moved on two versions from 4.38. Why is the 4.38 release still being discussed? That goes for 3.39, 3.37 and every other version back to 4.25. The current test release is 4.40 (at the time of writing). Berkeley have moved on from 4.38. Any bugs/features/work-arounds 4.3x may/may not have had are history. Discussing obsolete versions simply adds confusion and noise to the development and test process. There are only two versions for which discussion is relevant, the latest test release (4.30) and the latest stable release (4.25). Test users should always install the latest versions quickly and report any faults, then either live with them and continue feed-back, or roll-back to a version that was better for them, and wait quietly for the next test version and try again. Berkeley are no longer looking at the 4.3x code, any bug reports will be tested against the 4.40 code and fixes made to 4.40 - no one's going to fix anything in 4.3x. Non-Test users should stick with a stable release and only report bugs if they have the latest stable release - the developers will be able to test a report against the latest stable release. |
