Any sign of Actinic v9.0.1?

[grantglendinnin]

Hey guys.

Deciding to go with it and order Actinic v9 Business Plus, upgraded from v8 Business.

I read the sticky, dated March 13th for Actinic v9.0.0's release. The Actinic Renewals page states 9.0.1 is due approx. 3 weeks after 9.0.0's release. To me that would mean it's due at some point this week.

Does anyone know when - and - is it worth waiting to order the 9.0.1 disk (with manual and wait 4 weeks) or just take the 9.0.0 version now (2 week wait)?

Further to that - what are the major issues being resolved in 9.0.1?

Thanks,
Grant

All available V9 info/problems known publically are already in the forum. I reckon 9.01 will be the week after this, not this week. I wouldn't use it until maintenance release 1 has been provided personally.

Spoke with Actinic end of last week and they said about 10 days so looking at next week assuming still on track.

We usually schedule the first maintenance release to be released about a month after the original release, so that will be around the middle of April. It'll probably be longer than the 10 days as a few niggly little bugs got reported towards the end of last week which we decided to add in.

that will be around the middle of April

Chris - did you work at Whitehall in a previous life?

Email received today saying it could be the end of the month! At least we are being informed which is a positive move.

[Goz]

Errm... what email?? Who was it from?

Maybe that should read "At least you are being informed..."

I wait with baited breath for my email....

I got one early yesterday morning

Got mine yesterday too. They say that due to volume it may take up to 2 weeks from launch to complete them, so could be any time from 15th - 30th April.

i got mine before you

I ticked for 9.01 on 13/03 expecting release by now. In view of the delay with 9.01 is there any chance of receiving a key so I can start building some V9 sites. Thanks.

Hi Eric,

You would have to call in to request this.

[grantglendinnin]

I spoke to [Daniel(?)] from Actinic yesterday and was informed 9.1 would be, at the current estimate, another 14 days. That was on Tuesday, so I'm expecting it, from his word, April 15th

I've had more difficulties obtaining this software (v9.0 or v9.1) than actually upgrading the site from v7 to v8, I ran the v9 trial and it seemed (so far) to integrate quite well without any major issues. Here's hoping

I got an email a few days ago ago saying that due to the high demand for 9.0.1 licenses there was a delay in dispatch but they should all be out by the end of the month (april).

Made me chuckle, yet CB assured everyone that there would not be any delays as they had it all sorted this time.
