I agree. There are a lot of bugs we fixed since 4.8, some really big, not to mention a lot of quality of life improvements. A 4.9.1 release will be required anyway, because harm and I cant catch everything (though I think we did pretty good). Dev releases are easy, but it takes most of a month to get the translations depending on whose active. If we can excite people with the release maybe we can get some more translators. :) Josh On 5/9/16 4:24 AM, H.G.
