New Version of Magento

It’s that time again! A new version of magento is out and about – terrorizing your neighborhood! It’s called 1.4.1.1 – not as catchy as the “beast of Bodmin moor” but what are you gonna do?

Some of the major changes in this one you can find here.

But from a quick skim through of the release notes it seems there are a lot of fixes based around the stock status, quantity and payment methods. There’s always a good number of fixes and improvements in every release note, it’s surprising the thing works as it is!

Is this another spit and polish or have they really capped off Magento’s Oil Leaks?

What I would like to see soon is a better method of backing up the data for magento – perhaps a built in folder duplicator that will create and entire backup – DB and all – every time you run your mage_all_latest.

All I know is – I’m having trouble upgrading from 1.4.0.1…let’s see if they fix that in 1.4.1.2…
