Datebk6 的第一個測試版本剛放出來, 當然還是有一些Bug和不穩定
但想要嚐鮮的人可以去下載, 發現Bugs 可直接在yahoo group回報
CESD會等測試版本較穩定後, 再公佈Datebk6的官方正式版
以下是轉載自Yahoo group中 CESD 今天公佈的文章內容

==========================================

I've now posted the first beta preview of DateBk6 at this URL:

http://www.PimlicoSoftware.com/datebk6-v60a-p1-preview.zip

NOTE: THIS IS THE FIRST POSTED PREVIEW. I am not recommending that everyone immediately download this preview. If you are the kind of user that responds to a beta preview with a comment like "Found typo in the About dialog, oh well, back to DateBk5", then you might want to pass up on the first few
preview postings

For most users, it should be reasonably stable as a beta preview. During some preliminary testing, it seems it should not be a problem for most users. It typically makes it through a million+ passes of an automated tester, although unlike most apps, DateBk6 is so complex that even a million passes barely scratches at the surface of all the potential combinations of preference items. I did once calculate that even if all the expected life forms on all planets in the universe spent 10 hours a day testing DateBk6 since the inception of life, that would still be inadequate to test all possible combinations <g>.

Grayscale devices may exhibit odd behavior as not all the grayscale resources have been inserted yet, but all color devices should be fine. Make sure you read through BOTH the HTM files before installing this.

Note that although there is a 45-day trial period on DateBk6, this is will only be a free upgrade for those people who purchased Datebk5 or paid for a DateBk4/5 upgrade from DateBk3 since January 1, 2005. Price has not yet been determined for the DateBk6 upgrade, but will be posted shortly. Also, I am
not set up yet to handle the automated generation of DateBk6 registration codes from the database, although I do expect to have that working shortly.

If you downgrade to DateBk5 from DateBk6, about the only issue you'll face is that the ToDo tag format was extended in Datebk6 and is not completely
backwards compatible, so you may find some attributes such as color, font etc. lost if you go back to DateBk5.

Note that the hiding and displaying of ToDo's differs in Datebk6 due to the addition of new fields (such as urgency) and due to the comprehensive sorting feature.

A few more minor features are still expected to make it into the final official release, but at this point the major core functionality is complete.

Have fun playing with the Today View - that's probably one of the most visible new options, and yes, I will be looking at supporting SnapperMail as well as the currently implemented VersaMail. Don't be surprised if I don't respond to all queries on the forum as I am still very tied up with chasing down some device-specific bugs and also spending time with comprehensive testing.

The small group of very experienced users that have already been playing around with a pre-preview release are active members of this forum, and will probably be able to chime in with comments about the new release.

Happy Holidays to one and all.

Cheers & Happy Holidays!

測試版的第二版公佈
http://www.PimlicoSoftware.com/datebk6-v60a-p2-preview.zip

目前試用的感想是, 和 Datebk5沒有顯著的差別, 穩定性也有待加強
但CESD表示目前還有一些功能會在未來的測試版本中加入
最後的官方正式版也會多一些現在在測試版中尚未加入的新功能

P2版本不能下载了。


The reason is preview version 3 just released, therefore the preview version 2 was removed by CESD.

Here is the download link, if anyone interesting...

懶的翻譯, 有興趣的人可下載參考一下

沒錯,就是打這個主意,
變成DATEBK6後一定會漲價
DATEBK6也一定會有BUG
所以現在先買DATEBK5
這樣子最划算

「最近」其實是指 2005 年 1 月 1 日。

DateBk6 has a new registration system. Registration codes from DateBk3 or Datebk4/5 will not work with Datebk6. The upgrade to DateBk6 from DateBk5 is free to users who registered DateBk5 on or after January 1, 2005.

目前是 p9。

下載了P9。但在設定重複的事件時遇到問題。比如說我把從2月到7月每週三下午3:10到6:00設定為某個每週重複事件,當我寫完事件描述也選定好icon,回到weekly view時發現時間被自動改為3:10到晚上11:30,同時週四早上9:00到中午也被指定為同一個事件,點選進去看詳細內容,發現每週重複被改為每天重複,事件的時間被改動,重複的終止日也被改成沒有特定的終止日。有沒有人遇到類似的現象。不是不能改,只是得要重複好幾次才能成功,不然就得要回到DateBk5來改,實在很麻煩。

我照著你的敘述從頭到尾做一次
但是卻沒有發生你所說的錯誤
你能不能把你的操作的步驟說明確一點
這樣大家才容易幫你找出問題

我在試一次,也沒有發生這個問題。那昨天到底是怎麼回事?下次有同樣的情形發生再報告吧!

等到連 z 都用完再成正式版?

標題: Re: [新聞] Datebk6 測試版 -- 目前版本 pa (1/25/2006)
至少Dateb不像它的另一個競爭對手一樣, 把正式版當測試版使用
先敲你一筆升級費 (看起來倒像是付錢去測試新版本的 "測試費")
讓消費者付錢一起來抓Bugs
每個版本的小升級, bugs越抓越多
等到消費者開始罵了, 再來一次大升級, 然後再敲你一筆錢,...週而復始...

至少這還數的完。要是像 latex 一樣要數到 pi 那就有的等了。
