An update on the delay of v56
July 27
As of writing this its been a bit over 30 days since v56 should have came out. The reason for the delay is entirely based on a client compatibility issue and my motivation dying.
While Eric and I knew of certain compatibility issues we didn't know another one would come up due to it not being spotted in tests done by me. Additionally, Eric is not most available currently and we wanted to avoid doing the "worst case scenario" fix, but after a couple attempts the worst case scenario fix was the only option left.
Eric has confirmed he is able to fix every remaining version that we know has compatibility issues.
Second issue was my motivation. I did small progress over the weeks while I was waiting for Eric to fix the compatibility issue but it was far from any reasonable amount, so despite the issue being fixed the update is not ready. I feel like I'm at a good level of motivation again though so steady progress is being made.
Also, Phoenix is skipping v56 and v57. The current plan is to do v58 but no date so far.
