Frank,
If you have thin skin you shouldn't try to ride on the bleeding edge. Mach3 has been the same price for a very long time. Even though many, many features have been added at no extra cost to the user. Most any time features are added it introduces unforseen bugs elsewhere. As time goes by and good users report bugs they are eliminated until it is all stable enough to be considered a Lock Down version. Any version of Mach 3 is on the cutting edge, the development versions are on the bleeding edge, not for the faint of hart. As Mach 3 changes so fast it is impossible to keep the documentation up to date at all times especially for the development versions. This is why they are called development, meaning not fully developed, still in the process. I doubt you have taken into consideration the amount of time taken to create the documents. It is very time consuming. The guys that are working on the code don't have time for this, IMO they are spending there time where it is most effective, on the code. Creating features that we all benefit from. I consider the minor problems such as out dated manuals and bugs introduced thru adding features growing pains.
