Are there any specific plans or goals for software release(s) before the 29th that will inspire investor and user confidence? It seems like we may of moved from XChat development on traditional systems to mobile development? I realize you are very busy with the upcoming release of BlockNet infrastructure. Thanks.
A stable release of XChat across all platforms. 2 days left. Been ready to test new builds and help discover bugs. I'm willing to work for free here. Haven't heard about XChat much lately though. Everything is still on track...right??? I was not able to follow along over the weekend, did the actual android app get released for testing (not just the UI sneak peak)? if i didnt missed anything, so we didnt see Dan here all weekend. it would be nice to know when devs are planning to realease test and final mobile wallet and rev2.5 I don't think another version was released yet. The UI sneak peek had some working functionality however. Take a step back though. XChat and the mixer still are not working for me and many others. I'm ready and available to provide details and testing. Seems like quite a bit of testing would need to be done if it's spanning across 3 platforms. Adding mobile to the eco-system before the 3 main platforms are solid seems odd. I've had multiple software Q&A jobs in my lifetime so I speak from some experience. Hey Ursay What problems are you having with XChat, and with private transactions? They're working fine for me. Keen to do some testing of the stable version? - http://downloads.xc-official.com/release/windows/XCurrency_2.49.08.exeI'm on a Mac. The problem is the mixer and XChat don't work. XChat issues have already been documented in this thread quite a bit. Mixer issues were sent to Dan via PM. Was there other specific testing I can do which would be helpful and push towards stable releases? When was this? The stable release has been well-tested before we started the group chat test releases, and XChat (without group chat) worked fine, as well as private transactions. What were the mixer issues? Edit: the Mac build is new and therefore was not tested previously. So we need to test it: http://downloads.xc-official.com/release/OSX/XCurrency-qt-08_prod.dmgThis was 2 weeks ago when multiple users in this thread were testing. There was not much success. XChat does NOT work fine. Private transactions do NOT work fine. The mixer issues are that it does not work. I tested with XCurrency-qt-multichat_08i and my xc just disappeared into thin air. After Dan asked me to try XCurrency-qt-08_prod I got... searching, then processing, then timeout expired After that I haven't heard from Dan.

Is this correct? Second: in my (windows) explorer i still see something i do not understand. The XCurrency-qt.exe reports Date Modified: 10/1/2014 12:43PM Following this thread i would expect a more recent timestamp. Is this correct? but first ... i have a 4 year old that needs me to read here a bedtime story ... will be back online in an hour or so

Some targeted testing lead by Dan or another team member with a select group of testers from the community would be very welcomed. This could be coordinated using IRC and the Forums to better track issues. I think some official thread topics on the forum for each platform would be great with best practices on information to supply when an error occurs in the OP for each. I think as a community we really need to refocus on the forums for specifics. I know this is the place to be but it is absolutely horrible for development/issue tracking IMO. If when someone asks a question rather than pointing to the 1 of 1000+ pages here the related forum topic would be much more helpful in the long run. Other than this CURRENTLY being the place to go for info what is our (The XC community) hold up to using http://xctalk.com ?

"After Dan asked me to try XCurrency-qt-08_prod I got... searching, then processing, then timeout expired" I did see that. I'm specifically testing XChat now. After that we can move on to private payments, and then to the Xmixer.

What are you hoping to achieve? Usually testing and Q&A demonstrates specific goals in controlled scenarios which help a developer fix problems. Just random and unorganized testing from a PR guy does not drive solid software releases...especially not with 2 days left.

Very good suggestion about software testing. As you've correctly guessed, it's not my specialization. But the reason I'm doing this now is because I remember this version being tested and people being happy. I just want to test it lightly and somewhat informally now, so check that everything's still all good.

IRC and XCTalk generate little to no response because the community is so accustomed to coming here for everything XC. I'm trying to change that. I refuse to use these forums for anything other than keeping up to date with announcements and posting questions. This is an absolutely ridiculous format upon which to conduct back and forth dialogue regarding testing. If any of you want to test with me in realtime...I'll be in IRC.

Due to the nature of the mixer, certain firewalls can impact its ability to function and this applies to auto-nodes as well. If your running an auto-node and not seeing any transactions then that is most likely the case For testing, all autonode testing was done on a PUBLIC IP with a single wallet on the IP, as for XChat - all testing was done with a single wallet behind a NAT router w/ the correct PORT forwarding in place My XChat info is in my sig, go ahead and send me a message for testing, but if your using any version other than "08" it won't work

So we need to test it: http://downloads.xc-official.com/release/OSX/XCurrency-qt-08_prod.dmgThis was 2 weeks ago when multiple users in this thread were testing. There was not much success. XChat does NOT work fine. Private transactions do NOT work fine. The mixer issues are that it does not work. I tested with XCurrency-qt-multichat_08i and my xc just disappeared into thin air. After Dan asked me to try XCurrency-qt-08_prod I got... searching, then processing, then timeout expired After that I haven't heard from Dan. 08i? But that's not the stable build. By my recollection, XChat (without group chat) does work very well and was tested more than two weeks ago. Same goes for private transactions. But hey, let's not go by memory. Let's test the thing. Send me a message. Synechist, Can we try to bring some structure into this test & start with the basics? Where/who is the XC test manager? Testing is a job for a skilled professional, you are great with communication but maybe it is more smart to structure this endevor by switching first to the XC forum and get someone tech from the team to coordinate everything. Including (but not limited to) basic setup & checks and a simple checklist that can be crossed of after x no of confirmations from independed users opn the specified platform. Im my day job i handle acceptance test with a lot more care & preparation that what seems to be happening here. And this is cross platform with cutting edge tech I just installed from the .exe you just posted as the stable version over the current one(eg: did not de-install anything) , the wallet reports "v0.9.2.49.08.XCurrency-REV2" as the version. Is this correct? Second: in my (windows) explorer i still see something i do not understand. The XCurrency-qt.exe reports Date Modified: 10/1/2014 12:43PM Following this thread i would expect a more recent timestamp. Is this correct? but first ... i have a 4 year old that needs me to read here a bedtime story ... will be back online in an hour or so If you're on Windows and that's the version, it's correct. Very good suggestion about software testing. As you've correctly guessed, it's not my specialization. But the reason I'm doing this now is because I remember this version being tested and people being happy. I just want to test it lightly and somewhat informally now, so check that everything's still all good. You (the XC team) are not the only ones invested and equipped with skills. Ask, coordinate and maybe the result will surprise you.

I'm specifically testing XChat now. After that we can move on to private payments, and then to the Xmixer.
What are you hoping to achieve? Usually testing and Q&A demonstrates specific goals in controlled scenarios which help a developer fix problems. Just random and unorganized testing from a PR guy does not drive solid software releases...especially not with 2 days left. Let's change the word "testing" to "checking," to match my proficiency. This release has worked; I just want to check again that it works. Now that Dan's here, perhaps he can handle it somewhat more professionally...

Are there any specific plans or goals for software release(s) before the 29th that will inspire investor and user confidence? It seems like we may of moved from XChat development on traditional systems to mobile development? I realize you are very busy with the upcoming release of BlockNet infrastructure. Thanks.
A stable release of XChat across all platforms. 2 days left. Been ready to test new builds and help discover bugs. I'm willing to work for free here. Haven't heard about XChat much lately though. Everything is still on track...right??? I was not able to follow along over the weekend, did the actual android app get released for testing (not just the UI sneak peak)? if i didnt missed anything, so we didnt see Dan here all weekend. it would be nice to know when devs are planning to realease test and final mobile wallet and rev2.5 I don't think another version was released yet. The UI sneak peek had some working functionality however. Take a step back though. XChat and the mixer still are not working for me and many others. I'm ready and available to provide details and testing. Seems like quite a bit of testing would need to be done if it's spanning across 3 platforms. Adding mobile to the eco-system before the 3 main platforms are solid seems odd. I've had multiple software Q&A jobs in my lifetime so I speak from some experience. USRAY - your using 08_prod correct? Correct. How would you like me to proceed?
