I understand now when you wrote earlier about it is quite a long way away.
Jerry:
When does LL 5.0 get released ? - There's no official Roadmap until the end of Series 4.x, but you can assume around 1st June 2020.
Do you have a list of apps, or a poll of apps for LL 5.0 and beyond ? Not yet, to early. I'm still considering what if much at all, I can introduce to 4.x We are pretty complete now.

--- Quote from: Jerry on October 22, 2018, 10:40:26 PM ---In regards to Themes - Id like to keep the app as simple as possible for the moment. What I did have an idea about is 'Send Logs' from the Menu.
This would make a tar.gz and upload all relevant logs that devs need to see in order to fix a problem. This is already an About box on steroids, so we may need to just concentrate on refinement for now.

The "Send Logs" sounds like it would be a useful app for both members and devs.
Concentrating on refinement sounds good.
