Revision as of 03:22, 1 August 2012
Nice work on the 11.2.0 release. Thank you very much for all of your efforts.
Time of release
Ditto the introduction. Nice work.
For the uninitiated, the release date in the table might seem odd. Today for example, the date is July 11 while the table shows the release was July 9 but the status is "in development". What about listing only a month or year; "July 2012" or "2012"? The date could be added after release. Regards, Peasthope 03:16, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
- The release date is from the release page, and can be changed there. Page history for 12.1.0 shows 9th July was the planned release date on 15th June, but I know it has been delayed. --Quozl 06:46, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
