AlexT, why is it misunderstood that there has to be another release? Why was Dolphin 6 never completed, who really wanted Dolphin 7? It was begged that Dolphin 7 not be released until it was ready. If that was 6 months then it was six months. To release an application prematurely does way more harm than good.
You know it has been said you can do 1000 things right, and 1 person hears about it. You can do 1 thing wrong and 1000 people hear about it. That is kind of where we are with this release see more of Dolphin 7. were some things done right, absolutely, were some things done incorrectly and haphazardly in the name of getting the application out the door, absolutely. Should Dolphin 7 Final been released on Dec 25, 2009 absolutely not, that is of course my opinion, and that is based on the number of forum posts i have answered over the past few months. I have answered more forum posts with the release of Dolphin 7 than i have from the beginning of my involvement on this community and with this application.
So the tickets that are submitted need to be addressed, specifically when they are related to industry standards of what is in every CMS that has been released. As you may well know from following the social networking industry, this business is leaning more towards community networking and business networking than it is the dating/escort industry, and with that, there are functionalities that are now a requirement, and not an added feature, or something we wish to pay $130.00 for after the release of the application because it was left out as a core element.
