There is probably a reason, but it is unlikely that we will find out. I don't have the impression that Swissmicros is close to the community with informations.
But if anyone with contact to SM is reading this ... please take a look at the link to the DM42 manuals.
Thanks for the note about the DM42 docs; the folder was updated with the newest DM42 manual but something slipped and 41X stuff is shown there. It should be fixed by tomorrow morning (depending on where in the world you live
)
The reason for the inclusion of 3.0.5 vs 3.0.6 in DM42 v3.20 is simple. Integration of 3.0.5 began shortly after it was released in July but before 3.0.6 was released. Then the DM42 bugs were traced, identified and corrected. Then the Voyager fonts were improved and verified. Then a completely new Voyager User manual was written, reviewed, re-tweaked and completed. Then summer vacations happened while docs were being reviewed and testing was going on, and then stuff was released.
I really think the negative reactions about not getting the 3.0.6 features, which I've seen no evidence of anyone using anyhow, are somewhat hostile and overblown. Through observation and some insightful guesswork, Didier explained it pretty well, but I thought I'd fill the gaps here for those that were unconvinced.
If the features in 3.0.6 are important for someone, please just say so; "I'd like to use XYZ feature for doing this or that". Also, it would be helpful to confirm that you've worked with the new features (on other platforms) and found them stable and effective for your goals. Just pointing out you've noticed what has
not been included is not a collaborative / constructive approach, and is a disheartening response after a lot of work to provide another upgrade.
