MTA:SA 1.6.0 r7701 Release date?

[DFA Joe]

Hi,

First of all, I just want to say that MTA is a fantastic modification and the devs are outstanding. Also, is there an ETA on MTA:SA 1.6.0 r7701?

The MTA release cycle does not work like that.

A new minor version (1.5.x, 1.6.x etc.) is released to squash a couple of changes together so that updating and requiring new features via min_mta_version works easily.

A major version (1.x) by contrast is only released when we have to release it because of incompatible changes (for example at the network layer), because the client's and server's major version must match (that means you cannot join a 1.5.1 server using a 1.6 client, but you can join it with 1.5.2).

In conclusion: The next version will be 1.5.3 most likely (which will get released soon probably)

Thanks a bunch for your reply! Keep up the great work.
