First my apologies as I know this threat is not for users, but I just
wanted to add an "outside" point of view.
You are doing a great job with samba4 and us, the users, are eager to
use it in our production environments, but I think that you shouldn't
rush to the RC before having fixed some mayor (at my point of view)
features as many users will be encouraged to get samba running and they
may disappoint after having issues or even corruption of their
production environments.
In my opinion, an RC should be for a product that you have almost
completed and need more testing to get new bugs you just missed, but at
this time, you already have many important bugs waiting to get time to
be fixed.
I'm trying to get samba to substitute windows but domain controller is
not working properly yet, so I'm not even trying to test s3fs just to
pile up more problems. But I'm a fun of your work and I'll keep trying
until I'll get it working, others may not have such enthusiasm and just
think "this doesn't work, I'm not wasting time... let's keep windows".
Again, just an user's opinion.
Regards,
Juan Pablo Lorier
PS: I'll be back from vacation next week and I'll try this new betas :-)
