Any sort of roadmap for Xenforo 2.3 ?

Who said anything about expectation? You said care.

It would be incredulous to think that the chaps that develop the software do not care about their customers. I might have issue with the development time but don't confuse that with the fact that I think the gents responsible actually care about what they produce.

There will be added weight on their shoulders as we pay for this. If they ( Xenforo ) didnt care about their userbase they wouldnt have given any retort to when is version 2.3 coming.

They have to keep the punters happy, they pay the bills. This is why they care what we think.

Fixed - Upgrading/Installing Addon with Wincache Enabled Crashes XenForo

When using Wincache as the config.php cache option, if you install/upgrade an add-on then XenForo will crash at the final step and stay crashed until you clear the Wincache usercache. Checking the php_errors.log, the crash is caused by the cache not being flushed/updated and being invalid when...

Finally, we're moving to Symfony Cache from Doctrine Cache in XF 2.3

It's just a pre-emptive package change.

Sounds like addon devs got documentation or an early preview, so it shouldn't be long.

It was in one of the bug reports which describe how they are migrating from the deprecated doctrine cache to using Symfony cache.
ref: link 1, link 2

It requires restructuring so the same add-on would support XF2.2 and XF2.3, but I ended up releasing that so I can keep doing updates without needing to keep two incompatible branches of the same add-on.

I'm positive there will be some post XF2.3 patching depending on how the caching interface changes or if it is raw Symfony cache which contains some nasty foot guns. It is roo easy to cache an item without an expiry because the interface is terribly designed.
 
FWIW 2.3 provides the Symfony cache adapters wrapped in a Doctrine shim so the existing interface does not change for now. You have to explicitly opt-in to receiving a regular Symfony cache adapter from the container.
 
Alright, I've read through it. When can we expect version 2.3 to become available? It's been a year without any new releases, and I'm still maintaining my membership. I believe at least one release per year is reasonable
 
Would love to know if the Xenforo developers are going to do a vBulletin and actually jump to version 2.3 like they do when they reached 5.7.5?
I'm guessing here that there would be a few more updates to come before 2.3 is out?
