G'day Armin,

Thank you for your reply, you were absolutely correct in your assessment, it was just the Alpha label that concerned me. I haven't had any issues with 2.2.0 alpha to date, it works well and is so flexible in that it can be adjusted to suit laptop screens very neatly. All in all a great piece of programming, having spent thousands during my working life on AutoCAD, Intellicad, and such, to have such facility free of charge is quite amazing.

When the official version is released, will there be any notification as I feel that is when I'll close down the daily build PPA?

Thank you also for the "Ask Ubuntu" link, some really good answers there.

Off the topic I know but the whole Linux ethos is just wonderful, people are interested, and offer unreserved assistance, something we need worldwide.

Once again thank you, your support is most appreciated.

Hal.

Hal,

do you have any issues with the 2.2.0 alpha version? Or is it the alpha that make you uncertain?

Don't worry about the alpha in the version label. I believe that the latest version is as good as the stable ppa version.
The latest version is nearly ready for release. I think we will skip the beta state and move to release candidate with the latest code soon.

If you want to switch to the stable ppa anyway, find instructions how to remove the daily ppa on askubuntu.com:
