Release Candidates

I think the easy availability of binary versions of each RC (particularly for Windows) with all the extension DLL's would mean a lot more testing would be done. I would certainly have found out about the COM bug(s) if I'd had a binary version later than RC6. I can't compile the code (yet!), but I definitely test (by test I mean I run it through my own code - not the test scripts) each release I can get hold of with the extensions I use regularly (ie. cURL, mssql, sessions, COM). I reckon if each RC had compiled versions then certainly the Windows version would get a lot more exposure before release. Just let me know if I'm being dim and they have been available somewhere, but I haven't spotted it... Cheers Peter
