Is there an ETA on 8.1 release?

I have a project to write a Perspective app. I could write it in 8.0.x but I would like to use some of the 8.1 features.

Is there an ETA on when 8.1 will be past the RC stage?

PS
I installed 8.1 on a test system. I like the direction you’re going. Just giving some feedback.

RC3 is planned for Monday, final release is planned for Oct 27.

Since I’ll likely forget before then, I’ll wish you a happy birthday, Steve.

I test it out today and it really stable and fast compare to RC1 and older 8.0.x version.
Even performance improve a lot.

Is this still the plan?

No, final release pushed to Nov 2nd. That’s the current plan, anyway.

Will changes that include in 8.1.1 nightly be available in 8.1.0 final release?
There are many good changes in nightly and I can wait until 8.1.1 final release.

Now i’m intrigued by what changes there are in 8.1.1…

Thanks for the update. Exciting.

No, doesn't work that way.
