As a huge mlo fan, I was wondering if there's any chance of a public beta for the new mlo 4. I don't mind dealing with a few bugs, and would love to start putting the new mlo into practice and see how it works in my work flow. I'm sure lots of others would love to give it a try as well, so if it's at a reasonably stable state, a public beta for registered users would be kind of exciting!

A happy and hopeful mlo user. :-)

I'm watching the Beta process from the sidelines (I'm on a Mac and haven't had time to spin MLO up)
Key Features being tested right now
- Auto sync to cloud
- Multiple Windows
- Multiple Views

The new features work as Andrey intended however we often spend hours debating how best to name them and make them useful. Some of the changes turn out to be quite fundamental in terms of their implications. By having Lisa, Grant, Dwight et al (sorry if I've missed any) discuss the missing details and how to name things.

Net result slow Beta process to get you an awesome product. IF everyone here were invited into the Beta group the key details in sorting out big new features might get lost.

Cheers

I am one the private beta testers and my personal assessment is that the product must be close to being ready for a public beta (but I have no inside information).  The produce is robust and is pretty usable – I am using it for my day to day work and finding the new features – particularly tabs and the ability to open multiple windows on the same file a major step forward.  

 

I don’t think I am revealing anything I shouldn’t in saying that Andrey appears to focussing on just sorting out the remaining issues with the new functions that he has added and does not appear to be planning to add any further new capabilities.

 

V4 is a significant step forward for MLO and will definitely have been worth waiting for!

 

Hope this helps

 

Richard

Yes, I've been wanting to know this for some time as well. I know the response is, "Well, we hope to get it out soon" but that's a vague response. Is there any sense of when a public beta (or actual release) will happen?
