AppCompactor 7-zip beta update to consider

Hi,

Regarding the latest official release of 7-zip, version 4.65 2009-02-03, and the work done on beta version of this program, now version 9.13 2010-04-15 (7 versions since the official release).

Is it possible to consider updating AppCompactor to the latest beta release ?

Thanks in advance.

Beta, no benefits

That version is a beta, we don't tend to include such things. What's more, as far as I can tell there would be no benefit in such an update; I think also that it would make the package larger which is slightly undesirable.

Hi, I think that beta is not

Hi,

I think that beta is not real problem, because of portableapps regularly provide preview version based on beta or alpha release of popular softwares.

So i will check if i can update the binaries by myself.

Bye.

yes, but

The only case we do betas regularly are Mozilla's Apps. Besides these, betas are only done if major changes in the application itself require a major rewrite of the launcher.
