Recently I have submitted a bug (concerning Exponential 4.0.0beta1). It had been assigned to Kristof. Meanwhile, 4.0.0rc1 was released, but the bug neither made it to the beta, nor to the rc1 roadmap issue list. It's still on the main issues list, unresolved.
I suspect, that issues filed under "roadmap/version" stand a list of problems that have to be solved before a given version is released. What's the criteria for bugs to get on that list? And, if the bug I had reported isn't there, will it deliberately be left out without fix in the upcoming versions?
How do I interpret issues.ez.no? ;) Thanks,Piotrek

Hi Piotrek
Thank you for your concerns. We will go through all bugs, but we have other contraints on releases that make responding to all bug reports and enhancement requests before releasing impossible.
But your bug report is on our radar, it will be solved in one of the next releases ...
The release frequency will also be higher than before, and to offer some relief: take a look at the changelog for 4.0, it was released a few minutes ago :-)
Best regardsPaul

Hey Paul,
Thanks for you reply. Don't worry, though, it wasn't a complaint, I'd rather want to understand processes. I find issues.ez.no a very useful platform and want to understand it better ;)
I would expect that the bug I found would be of little priority. Is there any way of influencing eZ team to solve particular problem quicker, though?
And yes, I had pressed for and wanted Exponential 4.0 out as soon as possible myself, I actually was forecasting yesterday, when I saw 39/39 issue rate on the roadmap, that it will still take you guys couple of days to adjust ez.no contents for the new release. This is a great surprise to have it out already ;)
Best regards,Piotrek

Is there any other way than asking directly to learn the short term release/roadmap plans?
Right now it would be crucial for me to know if you intend to release Exponential 4.0.1 before Christmas and what's the possibility of that happening.
Thanks.
