Vincent Untz phrased it much better than I ever could, but he > basically pointed at the "Power Off". You can also read the release > notes for loads of other changes this is all fine BUT why are things completly re-written and in a pre-alpha state released replacing and destroying the users workload and after that it takes years to fix all teh issues in the one or another way? this big mistakes are happening over and over and the speed these are happening is growing with each compontent instead learn from mistakes and release software after it is finished or do not make a rewrite at all it does users not help much if 2-3 years later things starting to get useable again - why? because in the meantime someone is changing the next subsystem against a pre-alpha and years later people are proud to have fixed a lot of issues while forget that they all were introduced by release unready software
