I wouldn't have chosen such a thread title to begin with. But I'm not actively trying to dissuade anyone that the release of a new SB Pro PE version is reason for excitement. 😃

 

Hype Thread - 5.0 will drop as soon as 4.3 is released. 

 

Gotta get ahead of the game.

What do you mean "5.0 will drop asa 4.3 is released"?

Is there a ver. 5.0 about ready for release? I didn't know there was that big an upgrade in the works nearing completion. Just skip over a ver. 4.5 or, 4.628.  We will just a jump to ver. 5.0? Holy cow.., guess that release will require it's own registration fee.  $150.00usd (more?).

There isn't.

While individual 5.0 applications will appear for .mil customers as early as 2023, it will take much longer to fully migrate the current functionality to version 5, and to integrate the different components.

 

So, there probably will be a 4.5, maybe 4.7 PE release before version 5 is ready.

 

 

4.357 is our release candidate, and it's being built as I'm typing this.

So anyway, after 4.357 is out, time to start hyping 5.0.

Would you prefer "whenever"?

 

These guys can't win:

 

People pester them for a roadmap - which even much bigger organisations (with10x the staff) can't keep on track.

People pester for a release date - they give you a good faith estimate.

They do QA and advise things will be delayed.

People then complain that its too late/broken.

 

They could have just given you a version 1 week ago, which would have ticked the "July 2022" box but was fatally flawed.

 

Which outcome would you prefer??
