I think beta 4, the final beta, as well. Reason being, there are some *very* solid patches in the queue that *should* make it into the final release, but as Morbus points out, may require additional patches (but hopefully not). Some of these could be thought of as mini-features and really wouldn't fit in too well with an RC series, which should be predominantly bug and usability fixes. If there is anything we can do to better help the queue and get these in, please let us know. Many of these patches have been thoroughly reviewed and +1ed. Not to mention, if we roll a Beta 4 sometime next week, that gives everyone a chance at DrupalCon to chat, iron out any last 4.7 issues and we can post fixes which can go in before RC1 is shipped. That would really bring together 4.7 and get everyone on the same page before an RC1 ships. Cheers, ted On 1/25/06, Morbus Iff <morbus@disobey.com> wrote:
as mentioned earlier, I intend to package up CVS HEAD later this week (after today's bugfix party). The question is: should this be 'beta 4' or 'RC 1' (or 'RC' tout court)? I'm asking because some people approached me saying we should call it a RC. For fun's sake, I figured I'd ask you first before sharing my own opinion. When you answer, please provide some insight as why you think it should be 'beta 4' or 'RC 1' or 'RC'. No brainless answers please. Thanks!
Beta 4, in my opinion. We're still committing patches that require further patches before they work properly.
