Beta Testing

Click to see Time remaining for beta 6 review

As we prepare for the release of DMD v2.066, I would like to draw attention to the stated Agenda (Agenda#v2.066_.28July_2014.29) of this release. Please use it as a guide throughout the review process. Additionally, resolution of outstanding regressions remains significantly important and warrants full attention during the beta testing phase. In the event your particular change did not make it into this release, do not despair. The release process for 2.067 begins exactly four weeks following the release of 2.066 which provides ample time to address your issue.
