Servicing comes to the Slow Ring (and why that’s big news).

Thanks for the link Leo, so they are basically saying that they are struggling to get the Fast Ring releases stable enough to release anything to the Slow Ring

Well, yeah, kinda....

Fast is by definition and intention not quite so stable due to a lot of "we need to see what it does in the wild". Some things simply can't be tested enough until it's thrown out to enough variations to actually test it (we guinea pigs....).

So when it's kinda stable enough for the slightly queasy test crowd (Slow-Ringers), out it comes. Eventually trickling to Release Preview in small chew-able chunks till it gels enough to risk a public release.

Very well put TC, however I understand all that as I've spent a lot of time on the Fast Ring over the past few years but I've recently changed to the Slow Ring mainly due to the fact that I'm only running one PC at the moment . So I'll bide my time until I have one drink too many one night, throw caution to the wind and switch to the Fast Ring again

Well, I've scoured Dona's latest pic, thinking maybe they're back to hide-a-clue game, but can't see anything worthwhile.

Maybe, as VirtualBox says, they are in Guru Meditation.

Can't get numbers to make any sense... (8 should point to left...) and 5 should be 4 (different cards..)


So... 18422 or 18242

Uhhhhhh 18242 would be regressive. 18422 to big a jump. New Skippy series would likely be 188xx. But a noble effort, Andre!

OK, alternative count.. 1 (pen) 8 (rings or whatever) 9 (ninja cards - one large -5 + 4 small) 6 (developer 5+1) and 1 (pi)
