I've been using 0.4 beta, because attaching a file is buggy in 0.3.1 (large files silently fail to attach). But there are still a few issues in 0.4-beta as well. My main question is why does roundcube not release more beta's as more issues are fixed. 0.4-beta was released in April, so it has almost been 4 months. And the fact that it's not called "beta1" suggests that there will be only one beta release, correct?
Yeah. Common release cycle is: alpha, beta, (sometime rc), stable and at least one bugfix release. In the past we have ca.1-3 months for each stage, but because Roundcube Dev Team is very small so we've got sometimes lags.
Because the code is in svn, everybody can make a release: http://trac.roundcube.net/wiki/Dev_ReleaseManagement
p.s. 0.4-stable release is sheduled for tomorrow.
