[QUOTE="dir, post: 373683, member: 24485"] Ok, yes a new version announcement would appear that way, and yes, I could subscribe to a thread except that I don't want to read or be notified when people post to this 350+ long thread. If there's a releases thread somewhere else, I apologise as I didn't notice it. But I'm curious why I didn't notice it and I only noticed this one. At any rate, neither of these really answer the request. Do I take it that you have specific reasons why you will not create a new thread for this new release? Is there some benefit that outweighs the negatives I listed that makes it critical to avoid creating a new thread? Sorry if I'm beating this drum a bit too much, but I'd stop if anyone could please explain the need for keeping threads going that are hundreds of posts long when it's so incredibly easy to just start a new one. The only reason I can think of is that some might say that it's better to have all information in one place. But if that information's 99% obsolete, I don't think that makes any sense. [/QUOTE]
