Hi Sergio,

please do open a ticket, although work is being done as part of [1].

In general it would be great if more people could talk about their QA findings 
when piloting or otherwise test driving 1.4. Entwine is very much focused on 
the backend processing part as this is where most of our expertise is. Almost 
everytime we start looking at other areas, especially in the administrative ui, 
we almost always start hitting bugs, which is indicating that either nobody is 
looking at 1.4 or findings are not being communicated/filed or shared, which is 
less ideal because it keeps the expectation up that we are kind of done with 
1.4. Unless we have institutions that commit to properly QAing at least select 
areas of 1.4 we can't possibly release it, given that everyone has been waiting 
for more than a year and has high expectations of it.

Please see [2] and grab your column if you would like to participate.

Sorry to be so negative, but the overall lack of commitment towards 1.4 is 
rather frustrating.

Tobias
