Thomas seems to be quiet here recently.
Is this only the calm before the storm (announcement of release of Amapi8)?

I hope so.

no, sorry, I had to move a lot for various events and trade show: press conference around Poser 7 french in paris, Adobe live these last two days, MIFA this next week for 4 days, etc...
On the top of that, you can add Amapi, which is well.. not so far

juanmanuel · 8th June 2007, 17:45

not so far? wee!

Thank you Thomas for newest situation.

It seems you are working every day under a hard schedule.

Take care of yourself.

I'm currently working on the documentation and Layout. As the application, the documentation will be in "beta"

I mean, some features will miss, and a lot of illustrations will also miss.

I am very happy I found this forum...at least now I get some feeling, that I one day will get a version of my "lovely" Amapi working on my Intel Mac.

At eovia's homepage you get no indication on the future of Amapi except for the remark under FQA: "While we can’t say the exact date, Amapi 8 Pro will ship in the first quarter of 2007" - and that is a little late now!

Thanks for the good work....and please surprise us all soon!

First quarter?!
What the hell?!
We will be entering 3rd qarter in 2 weeks?!?!

mayito7777 · 13th June 2007, 16:22

It is a french quarter

juanmanuel · 13th June 2007, 19:25

I'ld rather see an Amazing and bugless Amapi in December than an amazing and buggy-as-can-be Amapi tomorrow.
If the development team is taking their time, I'm sure it's for a very good reason.

Thomas · 13th June 2007, 19:52

Juan: anyway, in a public beta, you will have more bugs than a finished product

Public beta? What, where, when, who? Was I out of town and did not notice something? Would you care to elaborate?

tonymax · 13th June 2007, 22:24

hi,

im thinking of getting amapi.. is it worth waiting till closer to the release of 8,(i would prefer v8) or will there be a good upgrade path...

theres nothing about v8 on the efrontier site...

thanks

Thomas · 13th June 2007, 22:54

We will do a public beta of Amapi 8. Please, don't consider that as an official annoucnment, but it's no more a kind of secret ;)
We will do a public beta of Amapi 8, anyone who want to try will be able to do it, even without being a current owner of Amapi 7 (or previous releases). No restrictions on the software, except a time limitation, until the next public beta update and then, until the final release of the product.

tonymax · 13th June 2007, 22:58

thanks thomas..
i know you cant say... but when will the open beta be available...

had to ask...

Thomas · 13th June 2007, 23:03

soon, perhaps at the end of this month, or at the beginning of July. Even if it's a public -beta-, it must be as stable as possible ;)
On another side, for those of you who want to see Amapi 8 in action, we will be (me included) at the Siggraph in August, in San Diego.

tonymax · 13th June 2007, 23:28

thats cool...
thanks thomas.. ill hang on till v8 gets around then.. ive got the demo of v7.5 and have got v6 thanks to this site....

cheers
tony
