Hi,

When can regular FPC user expect 2.7.1 to graduate and be marked as stable release?

Somewhere in Spring - like 2.6.4?

Thanks,
Gennady

it won't... if i understand the fpc versioning methods, it will be 2.7.2 or 2.8.0 ;)

we used to have a well used and slightly unpopular phrase when folks asked when versions were going to be released... "when it is ready"... kinda like cooking :)

NOTE: i'm just a user... not an admin or fpc developer... i just use it for my own projects...

We are currently in branch preparation phase of 2.8. Once it's branched it will be roughly half a year till the release (don't nail me on that timeframe though as such things are rather flexible!).

Forking off 2.8 is going to happen reasonably soon (some people on core prefer sooner, others a little later).

After that it is a matter of documenting, testing and building. So spring should definitely be a possibility.
