I was in the Live 8 beta. Shocked when they released it in that state, and have been playing "wait and see" ever since. Still waiting, still watching... still seeing a train wreck. How long is it now - 9 months? Thank goodness they are now finally going to pull out the stops and get this working for all
what do you think you can expect from a CEO that practically kneels down to make such a public announcement?Coupe70 wrote:how huge the step Gerhard announced really is and what we can expect from it.
Ableton is not a football club, there is no Team BugFix versus Team Developer. There are a number of people who actually write the code for the software. They could work on implementing new features, as defined by the specification team, or they could work on fixing bugs or general code clean up. Usually there is a process in place that ranks bugs by severity and effort and then the bugs get a priority and get assigned to a developper. In an ideal case to the developer who knows the responsible part of the code best. A crash is considered to have priority over everything, while minor issues like graphics problems get lowest priority. This is the normal routine, which is in place since Live 1. Obviously a few things went quite wrong with Live 8 and fixing them take more time then we initially assumed. Therefor we decided to throw all developer power on this and make sure we get Live back in the reliable state you were used to and resume the implementation of new ideas afterwards.Coupe70 wrote:What I meant was if the dev team now joins the bug fix team,Poster wrote: what does the whole team mean to you?
all of 2, all of 20, all of 50, all of 100..
it'll still be the whole team..
will the bug fix team (and so the bug fix effort) grow
by 10%, 20%, 50%, 200%...?
To know that would give me an impression of how huge
the step Gerhard announced really is and what we can
expect from it.
Well at least there is a thread on this forum in which peoplePoster wrote: what do you think you can expect from a CEO that practically kneels down to make such a public announcement?
doesn't that give you enough clue that the statement they obliged to is huge?

djsynchro is funny these days. What is announced is that there will be no new features untilAnd i am really offended by the anouncement that

I.e. they fix all major issues in just over 2 weeks so that they can then develop the NAMM-announced features...?
Yes, you're right, I think the Ableton/Cycling 74 co-working was announced in 2007. Good point; I just expected new features to be tied in with a date and/or Live version. Ok...alex.the.forge wrote:don't forget the C74 collab was announced something like 2 years before it appeared
announcing things at NAMM doesn't mean they have to have it ready by then
Maybe yes, maybe no. I am confident that Live 9's schedule will be delayed beyond what it was. However, that says little about whether the actual release of a working Live 9 will be delayed beyond what it would have been if Ableton had not taken time to consolidate and fix bugs in Live 8.Coupe70 wrote:So all in all it will be like with all previous versions.
Only that Live 9 will be delayed a little...
