How about a stable version of CB

<< < (8/8)

Barking_Mad:
I for one like the frequency of releases, and I have had no issues with the development releases stabillity. As much as I would like to see an up-to-date stable release.

Id like to quote Valves philosophy and guiding statement to Mod developers, I think the philosophy stands with CB:

"Release soon and release often."

I See C::B evolving at a steady pace and am happier to use it than I am VS.

I see absolutely nothing wrong with frequent builds.

Only yesterday, the Ubuntu update function told me there was a new codeblocks build available. I clicked 'give-it-to-me!' and a few minutes later it was on my PC ready to use. Great - could not be better!

Anyone wanting a stable build, should just pick a frequent build and stay with it for as long project overseers wish. You don't have to use the newer builds.

What good is a stable release? I used the stable VC6 for more than 10 years. I like it by the way and still use it on Windows, but it was only updated once as far as I can remember, with a whacking big 60MB patch.

I'm more than happy to set up apt-get to grab the nightlies when I boot up into ubuntu but for the sake of convienence if we could get a new 9.04 installer that will pre-bundle a 4.x branch of gcc for windows id be willing to drop 50$ usd on the project donate icon this wednesday when I get paid (or to some other paypal address).  Yeah i know its not much but its more an honorary thing considering you would have nearly a month to have the new installer posted after getting paid.  It would also get the people repeatedly whining about no releases to shut up for a few months.

BTW i recently upgraded my comps from 8.02 to the newest nightlies last week when i reinstalled a few systems and everything is running superb.  Great work.
