There are around 1000 bug fixes in PR1.3. Some of them fix issues that are only encountered by a small number of users, but some of them are really worthwhile. It's definitely a more solid release than PR1.2 is. I see absolutely no point in not upgrading.

It's a well known story by now and it's all related to the February 2011 management decisions. Regardless of those, PR1.3 is the best Harmattan release there is.

I saw there were some email issues in PR1.3 on N9, I'm only interested in Google IMAP email - as long as that's working fine in PR1.3 I'll give it a go on the N950.

3000 new bugs? No, there aren't.

Does it work worse than it did in PR1.2?

Same question here. Are they worse than they were in PR1.2?

Of course it all comes down to code, but shutting down the MeeGo organization and firing all employees doesn't really improve things, does it?

I know very, very well what happened in Harmattan development inside Nokia. However, I don't know what you're saying here.

Not much point in using it, then, is there?

My point still is that PR1.3 is quality-wise better than PR1.2 and that's a fact. There's no way around it.

well, maybe not new, but we you must agree that there's many bugs in code produced only by rush in coding.

it doesn't work worse than pr1.2, i didn't said it does, but update is not big deal because it doesn't cover much of fixes...

well, some things are straight forward from linux, while others are very different. there's many lacks in console apps functions that would make life much easier

yes, it is better than pr1.2 but it could be much better...

Sure, there are bugs and there are many parts of Harmattan which really are of quite bad quality. They're not produced by a rush but by a lack of competence from whoever wrote them. However, PR1.3 doesn't introduce new bugs, which was the point.

You did claim that it has 3000 new bugs, right here:

Yes, Facebook is a piece of crap. Even the 1.4.0 update didn't help much. However, as said, PR1.3 is not any worse than PR1.2 in this regard. Same goes for the video call.

Of course. Everything could always be much better. Often you just have to settle for the best available option. In Harmattan's case that's PR1.3.

I'm only commenting here due to this claim/question:

There may be 3000 bugs but not 3000 new bugs. What would be the point in not having those 1000 bug fixes and having a system with 4000 bugs instead of 3000?

Fantastically annoying if you're browsing e.g. a Twitter backlog out of mobile coverage. I tended to load up a bunch of links in browser windows when I was on the tube that I knew wouldn't load, so I could just "reload" them when I got signal back. Can't do that anymore, as all the windows become worthless. Time to switch to Firefox?
seems like there's some...

how can you claim that? have you tested all possible states of that machine on pr1.2 and compared it to all possible stated of machine running pr1.3?

that "new" wasn't bolded and maybe there's no 3000 but theres many new bugs that only needs time to come out from shadows...

It's very simple, then. Stop using it and stop whining about it here, since that definitely won't help anyone. There are definitely other options out there.
