	1.6.8?

Interesting.  We've had qualifiers previously, but not since the early
1.5 days if i recall correctly so I guess that hasn't come up before.
I haven't actually put 1.6.7.a in a repo yet as I'm waiting on a few
more people to report back - it seems although I kept the code stable
for a few weeks before release and asked users to try it, they didn't
get around to it (I'm not blaming anyone, it is just unfortunate) and
now problems are being reported on the final release.  There is the
one fix I've made so far to create 1.6.7.a but Simone has perhaps seen
another issue and a user on the spring forums is describing an old
problem which seems to occur more frequently on 1.6.7 (I'm working on
it under https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=298908 ).
Depending on what happens with these, I may create a 1.6.8 release
anyway, rather than getting into b/c/d suffixes.  I'll decide what to
do in the next few days.

Can I ask anyone who is able to, please try 1.6.7.a and raise any
issues you see.

Andy

I assume Andy you want us to try out the latest development build which includes the fix isAssignableFrom which occurred previously when WeakReferences were used liberally and heap memory was low (which might explain why it is always hard to create a test case for).

I would also like to see it named 1.6.8 though I understand why you would not like to jump so quickly after a release pushed out a week ago (except for me).

Kind regards,

William
