Release Documentation
The latest Verba release is (see latest documentation).
We are also maintaining archived versions of documentation of earlier releases since 7.0.
Release cycle
Verba publishes one new major release roughly every ~18 months. New service releases with fixes are release approximately every ~2-3 months. Since version 5.0 we have moved to a more agile release cycle with faster release cycles for new features. Sometimes new features can get into the product within a month, this is enabled by our automated continuous build and automated regression testing.
At releases.verba.com you can see:
- the old release notes
- release notes for the current release (an major release or a release update)
- release notes for the latest public build, which is of good quality, but is not yet considered an Update
- in-progress release notes for the upcoming public build, that shows changes not yet published, this gives you the possibility to peek into the progress of the latest bug fixes and improvements
Our version numbers consist of three parts: <major version>.<minor version>.<build number>.0 (e.g. 5.0.1575). The build number can become fairly large, since we are automatically building new versions of the entire software platform multiple times every day, so our testing and integration teams can work with the latest updates.
