Beta Helpfile

Post by ggonline »

I am considering trying some beta versions and wondered how closely the Help file is updated for such beta releases. I found the helpfile is updated for major,public releases, but not the convention for beta. I understand they are beta and just wondered if a policy existed for either stand-alone help or web-release notes.

You'll find that many of the most frequnt posters here run beta vers almost all the time so we can stay up-to-minute with Don...and..all we have to go on is the notes in the Beta forum thread (aside from any threads here that discuss those items being implemented).
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!
(XP on laptop with touchpad and thus NO mouse!) Using latest beta vers when possible.

Don does include really good "change log" update info though... They're thorough and ALWAYS are included when new betas are posted. Frankly, I'm not even able to keep up with the change log most of the time.. :shock:
