when might we see a new release?

Anybody in here have any idea on when we might see a new release? I'm new to the product... don't know how often SW is upgraded, and if they stick to a schedule. Thanks.

Approximately every 9 months, it seems. 04 isn't that old, so there'll be a bit of a wait, I imagine.

If we're all REALLY lucky, you won't see a new release until they get the current release working properly. Since that hasn't happened in my memory (I've been using since 98+) it will probably happen MUCH too soon for the rest of us.

Brian, I can't find any reference that chronicles all the SW releases but we might be able to draw some conclusions from the past year or so...

SW 2003; released about a year ago at SP0.0, now at SP5.1 (8 major public releases)

SW2004; released a couple months ago at SP0.0, now at SP1.0 with SP2.0 currently in the works.

I think we're looking at a "major" release every year with patches release about every 3-4 months.

Hope this helps...

Oops, my bad. Correction below... I meant to say with patches released approximately every two months. Good luck. - Eddy
