Hi,
I have another question
-Thore and Jens allow all user to test OS4 MUI4 beta builds at their own risks. Why not do the same and allow ALL users to test OS4 beta builds ?
 
As you said, OS4 is a hobby for OS4 devs too, therefore it's normal that dev is slow but it could allow the standard users to have fix without to have to wait sometimes 1 year between beta fix availability and public availability.
 
Thank you


I know this question is for ssolie but I can answer from beta testing perspective:

A few advanced users such as yourself maybe able to cope with the system being in permanent beta, but do you really want your machine rendered useless at random? Having to work out which revision broke it? Complete breaks aren't that common, but they do occur, and fixes can take time to find, and need you to verify that each update works or not.

Many other users simply wouldn't cope and the result would end up with alot of negativity.
