New in RapidWeaver 6.3 Beta 1
Significant updates to RapidWeaver’s publishing feature.
RapidWeaver now supports a wider range of FTPS authentication options
Updated to the latest version of the cURL library to improve the reliability of uploads.

Thanks guys! Version 6.3 finally fixed the massive FTP problems I did experience for months. I only can advise everyone who’s having FTP upload issues to try this version.
For someone who has up till now avoided 6 completely due to being a big fat chicken, do you think now is a good safe time to make the leap from 5.4.1 to 6?
I have a LOT of websites on the go right now, so if the learning curve is a big one I might have to postpone it until things are quieter on the work front.
Hey Gabrielle, I would suggest to do this step right now (with RW 6.3 Beta 2!). The learning curve is not very steep, and most things work just like before (only look a bit different). When you think of the coming new version 3 of Stacks, which probably will only work with RapidWeaver 6 you’ll not regret this step. Promise.
