Обсуждение: AM Lightning Debugger
Hi! Followed the link in the news item about the AM Lightning Debugger client. Your site says "available soon", and there is no download. How soon is soon? If you plan to post it right now, ignore this. But from what I can tell, your page says it'll be released with 8.3? In that case, the news items seems to have at least an incorrect title. And really, it should be held back until the product actually exists, no? (I certainly don't mind posting it then, but it promised me a download I can't find :-P) //Magnus

We will approve one public (ie. not 'by invitation' or limited download) beta announcement, and major version releases for commercial products, provided they're not overly frequent. This may change in the upcoming revised policy of course, but that's not being applied yet. /D

If it doesn't exist, it doesn't exist. I am sure it will exist in the future so let's promote what is probably a great product when it actually hits. Alternatively, release a Beta or something.

Agreed ... since when do we start promoting vaporware? :) - ---- Marc G.
