Josh/Kyrios,

There is one thing that I really do not understand. Why is everyone trying to get you guys mad with 3.9, 3.99, 3.999 etc. and when will Solus 4.0 be there? I really don't understand. We have a (already for many years) perfect running system. You and your guys are working like idiots to get it better and better etc.
Please everyone : take it easy. And please wait. When there is better system you all will be the first one who will see the result. So please : do not ask for ETA's anymore. And please again : take it easy. A new version won't break the world. The result will be perhaps more better . But in what way? I am already satisfied with Solus for a few years.::

    evert 3.9999 is a funny number.
    Yes, Solus is a rolling release so we users see gradual changes, but I know a few who are looking for updated iso images to test Solus with again. They will come with version 4.
    Been running Solus for well over 2 years, so know patience when it comes to releases.

      Kyrios, I really don't know...but we both know they are 😉

      Don't know and don't care to be honest. I don't make it a habit of listening to the loudest voices in the room.

          evert for many, this signifies one step closer to gnome 3.30, which brings significant performance improvements.

            pceiley,
            Naturally Gnome 3.30 is important. And within one year 3.40 will be important. Allways something is important. But that is not the case. It's just the fact that Josh and his collegues are working like idiots to make Solus better and better and better. And they do it for free. They do this allready for many years. So leave those guys alone and when they have something new to tell, we will all be the first to know. But : be patient. It will all come in time, also Gnome 3.30.
            From a really GNOME-LOVER : Evert.

              evert I wouldn't dream of abusing volunteers. I have the utmost respect for the solus team and have never pestered them. Just suggest this may be a reason for some why the version number is important to them.

                Oh boy, we get a meaningless (but much appreciated) number roll today (I hope). And lest anyone think otherwise, I want to thank those that make Solus possible. Long ago, in a galaxy far away, I did some personal internet projects, and contributed to free source software (including the popular 'sudo' command). I also had an opportunity with work where I was in town with Todd and took him out to dinner (on the company's dime, since sudo had allowed significant operational security efficiencies for our data center).
                Release points will probably always be important (maybe not so much to those using the distributions but more to outsiders and/or newcomers). Those of us living in the eco-system, probably appreciate major releases of included software more than the distro numbers. Even so, I admit to an expected thrill at seeing 'Solus 4.0' on the boot list.

                Justin if you really want to test, mate is waiting for you 😁

                  Not announcing Solus 4 to my own social media streams until the new ISOs are in place on the download page.
                  Fully know this has no ETA.
                  Still, I so look forward to going home after work and updating my 3 Solus installs.
