If history repeats itself, few days before update this thread will roll away from top and make room for new ..

I think that the last update was one most important and I am pretty sure that soon will be released "the most requested update".
I wouldn't normally think that the "most requested update" will be released inmediatly after a "great release", like the last one. But having said this...

• Tuesday and Thursday are the most common days of a new update, as you can see

• The biggest difference in days between two releases was 28 (it was Christmast), and tomorrow will be the day 28 for this release
• I don´t believe that the people in Onshape take in consideration if the last update was great or not to release a new one
• And, finally... Tomorrow Onshape will be attending the Pacific Design & Manufacturing expo in Anaheim, CA. There will be more Onshape partners like OpenBOM, SimScale, etc. all together at booth 3401. Then maybe, just maybe, they will love to share that "most important update" there.

As @oleg_shilovitsky, CEO and co-founder of OpenBOM usually says: Just my thoughts...

But my bet: Tomorrow, and the "most requested update" of Onshape.

@3dcad yes that was my thought too, but now we are driving the old thread back to the top with these useless comments. 

Patience, good things will come to those who wait.

Shhhhhh...  The first rule about sheet metal is that you don't talk about sheet metal.

OS Employee 1:- Do you have that flash drive with this month's update on it?  You know, the one with "the most requested update" included...
OS Employee 2:- I thought you had it.
OS Employee 1:- Gosh Darn.
OS Employee 2:- Should have put it on a cloud.

Hmmm. Did someone say sheet metal?

So let me tell you the secret formula on how we determine when to roll out a new release... We take the time from the last release, subtract the number of days since the last full moon and add the square root of the number of new documents created since the last release in minutes.

Somebody here had some crazy story about how we deploy the update the day after we fix the last bug that's keeping us from deploying. Lunacy.
