    build 8926 still has the bug

    Easy edit on top of the lua file,
    but in any case an update is warranted, Blizzard hasn't fixed it.

    Does it create any problems for users? If it's important I will fix it and release a hotfix.
    If not, I'll post it in new version if there'll be a new version.
    As far as I know, the interface version is basically only a means to check if MyAddOn.toc's interface number is greater or equal then the current interface version. If it is, then the addon would have passed this condition of loading. If the file's Interface number is less then the current interface version, then it will not have passed, unless "Load out of date addons" is checked and your addon's interface number is not lower then the minimum threshold. As far as I know, this minimum threshold is reset when there are incompatible changes that were updated from past builds; when the move from Lua 5.0 to 5.1 happened, a revamping of the WoW API, etc. Here is a link on how to find the current interface version. What all this means, is the toc number is just one way to keep track of possible incompatibilities. As far as I know, if your addon's interface number was set to 30200 for the beta, that should not present a problem. If a developer wanted, they could just set the interface version in MyAddOn.toc to a very high number, so it need not be updated for interface reversions; but that would defeat the purpose of having it in the first place.

    I also added a build check, so the fix will disable itself after the next build. If it's not fixed, update the build number and push out a new version.
    Lovely!
    Thanks!

    Nice.
    You should probably add the beta build this is needed for,
    in case Blizzard fix the actual bug in subsequent builds.
