Because they have enough time to make sure their software still works with the RC, but not enough time to wade through all the QA emails. :-) Most likely, though, the cost/benefit ratio of mass distribution of the RCs is borderline -- And throwing a few more resources at the QA team (eg Win binaries) will be far more effective. There will *always* be some bugs that only get found by mass testing. The COM bug should have been caught by a QA team member, and you've identified why not. :-) :-) :-) Suggested Compromise Ultimatum: Windows binaries and Zend test machine before 4.0.6RC1, or post RC announcement to the masses. This should goad us (okay, you) into having the process in place or suffering the consequences :-) :-) :-) -- WARNING richard@zend.com address is not working -- Use ceo@l-i-e.com Wanna help me out?
