"beta" is the new catch phrase, it means: "come on in, we have cookies!" (in case of QtDN, that is actually "muffins"). GMail was in beta, if I recall well, for 5 years...
-
My point was that the term "beta" is being widely overused, especially on web sites. QtDN is in good shape anyway - whether it should be still called beta is somewhat debatable (then again, I don't really mind whether it is still beta or final - it works just as well). Same was the case with GMail.

Alexandra and I argued about the beta tag the other day, we have some big things coming (Qt 4.8 documentation and Q&A forums) that I would like to land before it goes away. We're also quite far along in a security review - important but invisible work.
And once it's gone we should follow in the footsteps of others and provide a per user check box in the control panel in case you want it back ;)

Yes, you right.

This would be the most important feature we need ;-)
By the way, it could be added now for those, who don't want it, and the default is: checked (which would mean, keep it) ... -

Close enough ;-)
