Release Candidate Viewers?

This might sound like a dumb question but with the 5 RC Viewers do any of them share the beta features of the other? For Example does build number .287491 which is the Maintenance Viewer have all the features of the other 4 RC Viewers because it's a higher build number?

The RC viewers have the code of the main released version plus changes that are being worked on for that project. When one of them is "promoted" to become the new release version the other RC's are updated with that code but they won't have code from another project that's still in beta.

Inara has a nice flow chart here on how the release candidates work and Oz did an explanation of the numbering system here.

Scroll to the bottom of this article: http://blog.nalates.net/2014/02/28/second-life-news-group-bans-2014-9/

Oz Linden explains how the version numbers work. They tell you what is in which viewer.

Notice also, that when a viewer promotes to the main viewer all the RC viewers usually get updates and advance their version numbers. This is usually when all the RC Viewers get the updates that became the main viewer,

Do you still use Second Life Nimh? Been so long since I've seen or talked to you. Would be nice to catch up. I hope all is well with you.
