Re: 4.6 release schedule - request for a beta

If a beta is released, perhaps plugin authors will pay some more attention ?
I reckon there’s plenty of attention but personally I would like a stable (i.e. no more major coding changes) beta before committing serious time to updating plugins. I’m doing investigations but I’d hate for the goalposts to move again – last year I got most of my plugins sorted, but now many of them are broken.
And many of us would be more than happy to test 4.6 in real world scenarios – but not if it’s still in active development. Give us some time with a stable beta.
The devs have done an enormous amount of great work. It’s got to be time to let the beast loose – at the very least, on a long leash.

OK, I’ve landed jQuery UI v1.12 support in the system. I’m happy to go to beta release, I have no blocker issues personally.

re: the beta release
From the Github discussion threads
- It sounds like the security bug Wet is working on has an agreed upon solution.
- It sounds like Stef would like/it would be easier to refactor the multi-site setup rather than hack a work around on the invalid url. And this issue was marked as low priority.
- Could the multi-site issue be bumped to 4.7?
- Could the beta release then proceed?

Re: 4.6 release schedule - request for a beta
I was just coming here to ask what the status of 4.6 was, because it seemed close a few months ago, the way people were talking about it.
Let’s BETA-N-ROLL!
(Btw, I’ve not abandoned user docs; CSF just takes up a lot of my time, necessarily so. When the day comes I can scribble on docs again, I will. That should not stop recruiting other tech writers, however.)

Re: 4.6 release schedule - request for a beta
We are just preparing for the beta over next few days, there’s a bit of preliminary work first as this is our first release via GitHub instead of SVN.
