Plan for releasing core 2.4.2? #93

Closed Frogmore42 closed 6 years ago

Frogmore42 commented 6 years ago

I know that I can use the latest git version. It would be really nice if there was a similar/easy way to use any of the released versions from https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/releases

2.4.2 was released 5 days ago. It looks like it took about a month for 2.4.1 to make it to a platformio release, based on: https://github.com/platformio/platform-espressif8266/issues/76

Should I expect something similar for 2.4.2?

We will release it soon. Does 2.4.2 work well for you?

Frogmore42 commented 6 years ago

I haven't tried it yet, but I have heard it is much better for some stability issues that are in 2.4.1. Using it from the Arduino environment is possible, but that environment is much less nice for complex projects.
