Hello,
Just to inform you that, after a long wait, a new nightly build of Community 4.2.d with UI improvements and features (details to come) should be available shortly - it's building now and *should* be available tomorrow. In fact, if you are keen to take the latest code you will find the code for this version available in our public SVN repo right now.
Alfresco Engineering would like to let you know that we have been working hard to merge and test a number of disparate code-lines that has taken us quite a while, which is why HEAD (Community) has been mostly stagnant for the last few months. We hope not to have to do this again, it's been hard work! So we hope you enjoy the latest build. Also there will be an official final 4.2.d Community release coming in a month or so, until then enjoy the new features and improvements as we begin pushing code to HEAD again!
Thanks for you patience,
Kevin
