Hmm, I agree but try to see also the `good' part. Your provider knows
4.0b
is a very performant step forward and tries to keep it customers happy.
I've just finish a project in 3.0.12 and at the and I was asked to port
it to 3.0.5 cause the customer doesn't want to upgrade no matter what
[...]
Now, not asking for opinions from customers proves some lack of , you
name it,
but now what, you are trying to help your provider to get out of the
mess?
A quick solution would be to set-up a personal configuration on a
personal
server and ask you provider to accept your machine in until it gets 4.0b
up
and running or downgrades to 3.0.12/13
