We're very happy to report that every item on the Sueetie Roadmap v4.0 Specifics To-Do List is complete and ready for blast off. Some were substantial tasks like Marketplace Enhancements which included integrated product search, RSS, product review capabilities, a ratings system, etc. Others were less substantial, like today's task of replacing all hard-coded date entries in the SQL Installation scripts with GETDATE() functions. Substantial tasks or pure monkey work, all are complete.
We kept all To-Do task descriptions exactly as they were entered. If the task functionality was not completed exactly as stated, a clarification was added with the completion info. For example, we originally planned on an Inline New Page function in the CMS. A ton of features were added to the CMS, but not a Inline New Page widget. This may yet be added for v4.0, but you'll find that the update currently states that the function was not addressed.
Here's a link to the To-Do list if you want to study-up in preparation for v4.0, or you can squint and peruse the following screenshot of the list posted here for the edification of future generations.

How does that affect the Sueetie Version Release Date? There are still a few enhancements you'll be seeing, a Lollipop makeover and testing. Lots of testing. More than in previous releases, primarily due to Sueetie v4.0's multi-community architecture and ability to run in a subdirectory. Then the lock-down and package creation for Gummy Bear and Atomo. And of course, there's the documentation. Still shooting for February, but we'll let you know if that has to change.
