Well, that's not much of a slip if it sticks. Q2 I always read as April-June, so now it's just late June to hopefully before the end of July. LOL

Hopefully by ICC is what it sounds like :sweat_smile:
Might be a disappointing conference otherwise!

What about Whatsaap notifications? Anyone got any news about that? My client is keep on knowing what will unfold

HTTPs calls can be done since the dinosaur era. Take a look at Twillio.

Deprecated functions from 7.9 to 8.1 would dissapear in 8.3 or they would still work even is not recommended?

and... what about that 8.3...? Is it near of showing even a little...?

While I can't say with definitive authority to 8.3, IA has always been pretty good on keeping backwards compatibility.

Other than that:

I'm also not a definitive authority, but if you're referring to scripting functions, most if not all of them should still work. I don't know of any that have been removed, and I know that we've put effort into making sure several deprecated scripting functions still work in 8.3.

You should, however, make plans to use their replacements when possible.

Some of the ancient system.alert functions (alerting, not alarming - old old stuff) became no-ops, but they still exist and are callable. That's pretty much the worst we've done.

It is getting too late for me. I was enthusiast about 8.3, but I don't know if I will ever use it again professionally.

I’d be up for a semi-public Alpha release at this point..
