[ANN] This Week in LiveCode 190

[panagiotis merakos]

Hello Lagi,

Indeed, I did not mention this in the LC newsletter. There is no specific
reason about this, I just thought this does not fall into any of the
categories of the "This Week in LiveCode" newsletter.

In the "other LiveCode news" section I usually put discussions about
features /bugs in the commercial LC editions, or about issues in app
submission to the Apple/Google stores.

I also thought this might not interest the majority of the newsletter
readers (since the newsletter is mainly about open source LC), and people
that are interested have already been informed about the progress of this
in other channels.

To answer your question, the LCFM launch went really well, and yes, the
plan is to backport the features/bugfixes of LCFM into the main product. In
fact this is happening already - all the recent Android bugfixes, the
memory leak fixes, the Android barcode scanner and others were a result of
this backporting.

Hope this helps,

Regards,
Panos
