    How come there are not offcial builds? Wasnt it the point for us to test it…

    I thought something was going to get confused, with all the branch and trunk :P

    Jesse,

    this one is getting more and more serious:

    initially i brushed it off, but take a look at:

    it would help getting votes if you add it here ;-)

    I agree that the “installer deletes stuff it shouldn’t” bug must be fixed before 0.8. But screaming for more votes is not the answer. It isn’t a regression, but rather a problem with the installer (which is new sice 0.7 but still a month old). I think people are just noticing it now because they’re being forced to use the installer.

    I guess I could put a “(Warning!)” next to each link to an installer build.

    That bug /needs/ to be fixed before I’ll recommend Firebird again. Well, installer version at least. Shame, cos I’ve got at least a couple of people who I’ve told to wait for 0.8 before they try Firebird. I really don’t understand why Ben has flagged this as not a blocker.

    I know that you shouldn’t vote about something that doesn’t immediately affect you but in this case it’s stopping me from recommending FB so I’ve voted for it.

    Ben flagged this before all the users reported that they lost entire folders with information. I cant understand why this cannot be re-evaluated…
