When I read that there was some serious bugs in LR 1.4 I uninstalled promptly. When I checked adobe site, the LR 1.4 download is still there. Question is: Is it safe yet? Anyone?
BTW, I'm on PeeCee
Full Version: Lightroom 1.4 - is it safe yet?
From the horse's mouth -
"The entire Lightroom team is extremely sorry for any problems we've caused our loyal customers with the March 14th 1.4 update. In our eagerness to get new camera support into customers' hands as promptly as possible, we let some bugs slip past our testing that were frankly unacceptable. Compared to other Adobe applications, we've taken a much more aggressive approach to releasing frequent new versions with new features, but it's clear we need to take a hard look at our release process to make sure that this aggressive approach doesn't sacrifice quality. One thing that we may consider is continuing the community approach we've taken in the past by releasing betas of our updates, so that they can get the broadest testing possible before they are certified as final. The timing for what will need to be a Lightroom 1.4.1 release has not been determined but updated information will be posted to this blog when available.

It seems to be there but in reality it points to the previous release as stated by the same Adobe download site:

The following download links have been redirected to link to the Lightroom 1.3.1 download regardless of the version number indicated. Additional details regarding the Lightroom 1.4 update will be posted to http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/.
So we have to stay with LR 1.3.1 until a new 1.4.x will be released.

My copy of Lightroom isn't dinging me about 1.4 or 1.4.1 being available. As far as it's concerned, 1.3.1 is the current version.

All that's available on the Adobe site for download right now is LR 1.3.1
The link says 1.4, but when you get to the page for the download itself, the most recent version available is 1.3.1
