Looks like 1.4.2 is going to be the sweet spot. Will we need 1.4.3 before the masses upgrade?

[Billy]

I have tested and tested 1.4.x a lot. Now It looks like 1.4.2 is going to be my path from 1.2.5.0 and 1.3.1.1
I just wanted to says thanks for all the hard work that you guys do.

[shokinro]

do you know when will 1.4.2 be ready? I am looking forward to it.

According to bug tracker 11 may. And indeed it seems like the best version to update if you haven't yet.

What is in this version please?

[MaSTeRMinD]

I think nothing new just lots of fixes.

Version 1.4.2 release next monday may 16, 2011.

The prestashop guys already sent me a copy to test, I have noticed any major changes and or problems however I am using a test store I made to test the upgrade. My current store has bugs from 1.4.1 but I use Softaculous and control panel to perform normal upgrades so I am not trying to accidently mess anything else up on my current store.


Here is part of the Email I just received at 9pm.

In recent weeks, our team took into account comments and suggestions from the community relating to upgrade and bugs.
We are about to release a new version 1.4.2 with three main changes:

1. improvements related to the upgrade process
2. fixes of all critical bugs which were opened on http://forge.prestashop.com
3. significant performance improvements

Improvements to the upgrade process would be most welcome.

I do worry about these frequent, small releases and the effect they may have on installed (Add On) modules. You could spend your life testing rather than trying to improve your customer experience.
