I do understand it is not XC's fault about a 3rd party module breaking. But never before have I seen this kind of poor release. Been using XC since the 3x branch.
Every time a new release comes out, even 'stable' ones, it is one thing after another. After a while, you yourself know, it gets old. I have been on this FRESH install for 3 weeks (part time) now trying to work out kinks here and there. Things that I have not said anything about but gotten used to with XC. I have not done a ton of design modification, mostly just color and size changes in CSS.
But with all the problems I have run into, I have to wonder if this thing has any stability or if it is just highly volatile.

I do agree with that. The releases come way too fast. They come with glitches and bugs.
We the people should not be beta testers and have to submit bugs via the bug tracker. They should find (and pay) a group of people to test this thing. It is like we all just lab rats in a laboratory.
I retired from web design to pursue my own adventures in e-commerce. I had customers leave one hosted cart for another regularly because the one cart wanted to do live beta testing. They have a good cart, but the owner of it just likes live beta testing. You never know if your store is broken or working. When updates come. With XC, we do have the ability to know when updates come, but we still end up live beta testing for all the bugs. Or spend a lot of our own man hours to find all their bugs and decide upgrading is not the thing and we should live with the bugs in the version we are currently on. Either way, we live with bugs. I just feel it is a bit ridiculous to have this many problems and send it out.
I know, don't jump on the latest version. But um... lost orders are not what I am looking for. Looking for that stable iframe integration with XP.
If I should just go sit down and shut up, do let me know.
