    Bug #1 is still new (but easily fixable), #2 and #3 are now fixed, #4 is relatively minor and shouldn’t be a big deal for most. I’m going to start using nightlies again starting tomorrow if nothing else crops up.

    If you haven’t been using nightlies out of fear of bugs, be careful switching over tomorrow:

    “I trashed nearly 200 lines of codes, so please test
    well and report bugs! :)” – Pierre

    Of course it owuld help the testing if you switched.

  3. Jeff Walden Says:

    Later reports in that bug suggest it’s working fine now.

    It’s not so much out of fear that I sometimes don’t use recent nightlies as just not wanting to have to deal with anything major. I usually use something from within a day, but if there’s something that would particularly interfere, I stick with an older nightly (currently on 20031028, but will install 1106 after I finish this post). The whole testing part is secondary to efficient browsing for me.

    Jeff,

    Completely understand. That is why I come on here so often – I want to know if there are any show stoppers. Some of the time I see them but usually not until after they have been posted on here by Jesse. A couple times it has allowed me to go back to the build before a new error has come into the builds. I was just letting you know something that I had seen on another page that might have helped you just in case.
