This is an RC version for now, so please keep in mind that there might be some bugs that managed to hide from us, and if you stumble upon any of them - please let us know so we can fix them ASAP!\r\n\r\nFirst of all we would like to thank our community, contributors, and clients for helping us get so far and achieve so much. We don’t say it enough but we really appreciate that you decided to choose YetiForce - thank you for your patience, understanding, and effort. Every single bug report, pull request, and suggestion helps us a lot, and shows us that you care about the system as much as we do. \r\n\r\n## Version 4.4\r\nThere are a few major things that make this release different and very important. For the past 3 years we’ve been working really hard on the technical aspects of the software; we added some new features, some we had to rewrite from scratch, some we unfortunately had to remove. All these decisions, even the controversial ones, were made with one thing on our mind - to provide you with a reliable and secure CRM. Version 4.4 is a milestone for us, because it’s the last version that brings these huge changes. From now on we will mostly focus on development, improvements and optimization.\r\nOne of these huge changes in this version was removing the reports module and substituting it with a number of charts and widgets. [This issue](https://github.com/YetiForceCompany/YetiForceCRM/issues/6538) explains in more detail why we decided to remove them. If you want to see the new tools, please take a look [here](https://github.com/YetiForceCompany/YetiForceCRM/pull/6542) and [here](https://github.com/YetiForceCompany/YetiForceCRM/pull/6554). \r\n\r\nVersion 4.4 stable will be released in about 2 weeks from now, before GDPR comes into force and will be fully compliant with the new regulations. Right now we’re still working on all the issues related to GDPR compliance.\r\n\r\nMoreover, we will fix all GitHub issues (bug reports) before we release version 4.4 stable, so please test the RC version thoroughly and report all the bugs you find; the more bugs we find and fix in the RC version, the fewer of them will sneak into the stable version. \r\nWe’re also planning to open new communication channels apart from GitHub once we fix all the issues and make sure the current channels are properly managed. The community suggested a forum and a chat a couple of times, so we will gradually add them and keep you informed.\r\n\r\nWe recently also opened our own [store](https://yetiforce.shop). The store is our place to sell services related to hosting and support. We WILL NOT release a ton of new modules that you can only purchase, we still believe that all necessary and useful functionalities should be available to everyone for free. Apart from  the 3 support packages we currently offer you will find 4 affordable cloud hosting options. \r\nWe’re still working on it as far as the appearance and product descriptions are concerned, if you have any comments please send us your feedback!\r\n\r\n## LINKS\r\n\r\n- https://github.com/YetiForceCompany/YetiForceCRM/releases/tag/4.4.0_RC1\r\n- We're working on the update package, it will be available around the 10th of May \r\n\r\n## UPDATE & REQUIREMENTS\r\n\r\nWe would like to remind everyone that updates should first be executed on a test version, and only then on the production version (you should always have a backup copy of your environments).\r\n- The list of current web server requirements necessary for version 4.4 to work properly can be found [here](https://yetiforce.com/en/knowledge-base/documentation/implementer-documentation/item/web-server-requirements)\r\n- A detailed description of the installation process can be found [here](https://yetiforce.com/en/knowledge-base/documentation/implementer-documentation/item/system-update)\r\n\r\n## CHANGELOG\r\nA complete changelog can be found in the comments below, and will soon be published on our website.\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/YetiForceCompany/YetiForceCRM/issues/comments/385156618","html_url":"https://github.com/YetiForceCompany/YetiForceCRM/issues/6707#issuecomment-385156618","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/YetiForceCompany/YetiForceCRM/issues/6707","id":385156618,"user":{"login":"PercyP","id":10598886,"avatar_url":"https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/10598886?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/PercyP","html_url":"https://github.com/PercyP","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PercyP/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PercyP/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PercyP/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PercyP/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PercyP/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PercyP/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PercyP/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PercyP/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PercyP/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-04-28T09:16:24Z","updated_at":"2018-04-28T09:16:24Z","author_association":"NONE","body":"Hi,\r\ngreat work!\r\nCan those of us who want to update to latest version not use this package?
