New Windows 10 Insider Preview Slow Build 17713.1002 - July 26 Insider
-
Microsoft did state at the outset that the Insider program would become more "technical" as time passed
in fact they asked us to consider carefully whether we were willing to remain on the fast stream, given that they were going to trial various tests..
- it's par for the course..
Aye, and if anything is going to hit the fan, it will be on the insiders' versions, only - hopefully.

Would be of no use until they reinstate it.
True but if there is no mention of Skippy I just might try it out of boredom.

Here is the fully screen snip of buildfeed. Notice that even our next realease of Redstone 5 is on the release track - not prerelease. I hope they explain this. Did they not say the Redstone name was going to be changed with the 2019 builds?

Skippy is shut down at the moment until it is reformed with a new cohort of testers later in the year.

19H1 huh? Acronym for what? Why not WGAS instead. Where do the MS gang dream up these unwanted and confusing characters I wonder?

What makes them unwanted? It is only confusing if you don't know what they mean. I am sure there is rhyme, and reason for the naming. It is not from some random code generator! LOL

I find the new naming policy (if it sticks!) being both logical and easy to understand. I assume the letter H meaning Half, so 19H1 would mean Windows 10 version released in first half of 2019. Much clearer than RS6.
It is better and gives MS more flexibility than for instance the version numbers MS is using. I mean, current 1803 was not released in March 2018, even getting name April Update instead of March Update. The same with "September Update", previous version 1709 which was released in October, not in September as version number indicates.

Excellent. 19 Half One.
Why not FH19 ? I mean that a lot of people in the world read left to right to make things logical. Might be too simple for the egg heads to realise that or as a simple consumer these 'codes' have to seem important. I don't know but puzzled by how they get to these conclusions. Coffee too strong I suppose.

19H1 makes more sense. The release year is the most important followed by which half, first or second. What would the F represent?
