It is good to get the code stable. It is _better_ to keep your customers
in the loop on the progress towards this, so that we don't feel that
we're getting the big hairy shaft from Livingston.
We're stuck using b15 for the WAN card support (at the time we had no
idea that it would take Livingston over 2 months from the projected date
to come up with usable v.90 code), and it's been a rocky week since we
put it in. I would _love_ for Livingston to release b16, or post some
reasons why it is being delayed -- keep us in the loop, it gets really
OLD telling customers "We have no idea when they will shop an upgrade".
One final note, can Livingston pull the "we support v.90" crap from them
web page until they actually have a v.90 that works? That's flat-out BS
right now.
