Hi Judy,

There was talk of doing a 9.0.4 more quickly without features. However, it takes a long time to do the final QA to get everything ready for release and that would put the summer release further out.

We can possibly do a hot patch for some issues. What are the biggest issues you are facing now?

Are there any near-term plans to support development and publishing of Native Mobile Android/IOS apps to interact with AC9? There appears to be a growing trend of not just mobile web browsing, but device installed apps to better interact with the user.

-Jeff

Good Morning,

We just announced the release of 9.0.4. Please go to the home page for the forums and you'll find the announcement there with links to some additional information.

I also wanted to say thank you to everyone who has been reporting issues. We fixed so many in this last version, and we truly appreciate that they are being reported.

The Able team: Mazhar, Shaharyar, and Nadeem have really done an outstanding job!

Take care everyone!

Katie
