> I'm a little confused today... Going to qb64.com, in the Community > Forums section, there was always a link to here (which appeared last on the list, not sure why) but now it says there are no official forums for QB64, and no link to these forums at all.
Cory (the person who owns `qb64.com`) recently removed all references to Phoenix Edition from the website, that would be why you're confused
Personally I don't care to get caught up in all the drama as I'm just interested in working on QB64 itself (this is a hobby, I do this for fun
), so I couldn't tell you why certain decisions were made and don't actively follow what they're doing. That said, just to be clear, none of us working on Phoenix Edition have any control over what is or is not put on `qb64.com`.
> or did the devs decide that QB64 PE was now a different project, and decide on some beta version numbering?
To tack onto what Steve clarified, I think somewhat soon we should be ready for an actual stable release (I think we've sorted through the few "development" things and at this point won't be making any changes to it). We haven't talked about what version we will actually go to at that point but we might consider going to `3.0.0` as a clarity thing. Either way functionally we're a new product and the `2.X` versions aren't related to it beyond being the starting point.
We should probably also agree on an abbreviated name I've seen QBPE, QB64 PE, QB64-PE, etc... I'm pretty sure I'm guilty of calling it all of those at one point or another.
