as the title of the topic asks. is there likely to be any other point releases of xbmc in the future? it's almost a year since version 1.1.0 i would have thought we would have had at least 2 to 3 official point release before now. that is unless of course a decision has been made to scrap that methodology going forward and the only releases from now on are the cvs releases.
this topic must have come up before now, but i couldn't find anything relating to it when i looked so if it has been asked and answered many times before now my humble apologies.
btw keep up the great work team. looks like ms are watching closely and including your ideas in the xbox 360.

my suggestion is to declare a point release once the dvd player has stabilised.

i'm one of those (stupid) guys that wants software to just work. i'm also a happy xbox owner and when someone comes over to my house, i usually show them my wonderful xbox using xbmc as a dashboard. it goes something like this:
"you have to check out this xbmc, it can play videos, music, show picture, play snec and c64 games, blabla bla. " and then something breaks, xbmc freezes og something annoying happens. "uhhm yeah this usually never happes, i was upgrading the xbmc to get a fix another bug, and didn't notiched this one yet, but it's great then it works".
my point is that we need more stable/bug free releases. its been a long time since we saw the xbmc 1.1.0 and i'm kindly asking when we can expect another real point release.
please note that i fully understand the developers needs to be able to implement new features and fix bugs quickly and that this is a hobby project.
thanks for all your hard work

i agree too..
looks like plenty of bugs fixed in changlog in the past week or two.
dvd player looks to have stabilised somewhat.
it's getting 'close' to xbox 360 coming out too - so let's see a new point release to just tie it all together nicely.
xbmc rocks.. i fact, planning to buy another couple of xboxes, just to run xbmc in different rooms.
