An old saying...
Modified to reflect Carbonite's slow progression...
"The less things change, the more they stay the same!" :rolleyes: |

Only this month. |
Actually, Carbonite progresses rather fast. What is nice and slow are official releases, but Rythal has been firm that he wants to take the time to make things run smooth before releasing, since he'll be offroads a few weeks without the chance to fix things.

An even better saying; When you learn to accept instead of expect, you'll have fewer disappointments.

(incorrect) You said this earlier, and it's what got me thinking about 'update patches'. EDITED: changed the above comment "You said this earlier..." to read "ircdirk said this earlier..." ircdirk said this earlier, and it's what got me thinking about 'update patches'. "Rythal when are u plannig next release? Many fixes have been made in GitHub. Users are still reporting issues that are already fixed." http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...00&postcount=7 |
Wonderful how you put ircdirk's question out of context. But don't you fret, I have already proposed a more transparent and open release process to improve that issue.

*Chuckles* Actually, not to be nit picky, but the saying in question goes, "The more things change, the more they stay the same."
But its true that Carbonite, under the auspices of Rythal and the other developers is moving much faster than the alerts and messages concerning them. You have to consider, too, that they're dealing with hundreds, possibly even thousands, of lines of code (I've never looked at the source to see which), and believe me, after a while, hundreds or thousands of lines of code start to run together, and everything can look like a jumbled mess. Do this every day, and almost everything looks like it has code, from kids messing around in the kitchen, to morning traffic. The bottom line is they know you want Carbonite up and functional, and they're trying to achieve that for you. Such things, unfortunately, take time. Its not pretty, its not pleasant, but it is, unfortunately, the way the universe works. Being impatient only makes the wait seem that much longer, and exercising that impatience only impedes what success is already being accomplished, because they're having to reassure you that success is, in fact, being achieved, just not according to the schedules of those impatient hordes that insist on demanding an update or badgering the developers, or some other such nonsense (I'm not saying this is you, just a general statement). Anyway, that's my two cents' worth |

I don't how my comment was out of context. I'm looking at the Live version from a user's point of view, not from a developer's view point. If the Live version doesn't get even partially updated, athough there is "some" already-corrected code available, then the Live version remains the same. Hence, my statement "The less things change, the more they stay the same!" was meant to say that the Live version still remains the same. Not the working GitHub code. You folks are doing great with that. I guess it's only my sense of humor that is being misunderstood. I did not intend to open this can of worms! Sorry. I wish Cairenn would delete this entire thread! I was only hoping that the finished, good code in the GitHub could be added to the Live version as in interim 'patch' before Rythal left town. EDITED: clarification... HOPING -- not demanding, insisting, etc. |
You have put his question out of context by referencing it alone instead of its position within the thread, thus removing Rythal's answer.

I've seen no mention as to when Rythal will actually be leaving. It doesn't matter anyway. I'll be happy to get any fixes to Carbonite whenever they are available. I'm happy with what has been done so far. :) |
Hey, I am just happy that Rythal integrated changes into Carbonite so the Wholly map pins work properly. :)

If they don't do something soon and there is interest I might upload the files I changed (should see there terms first tough). |

Btw., Rythals last activity was "Yesterday 09:45 PM" (citated from his forum profile). So he's very probably not yet abroad.
|
He is "the boss" we cant do much with out him...
|
...at least we can't put up new releases on curse and WoWInterface.

An attempt to add a little humor...
Here's a link to a sound file which might be appropriate right now. :cool: It's from the 1967 movie "Cool Hand Luke." Note: I found the following link on wiki.com http://www.destgulch.com/movies/luke/luke18.wav And additional longer version of the same audio clip: http://www.wavlist.com/movies/201/chl-communicate.wav |
Also remember that you need only click the link in ircdirk's signature to get the very lastest version of Carbonite from github. ;)
