Darrell Shannon I'm not sure about this, but I think what happens is that the Edge team does 7 days of daily builds, and then picks and choose among the feartures/functions to build a weekly Dev build.

Another poster (in a different thread) said that he believes that Dev builds will be scheduled for Fridays. We'll all know soon enough.

tomscharbach - Thanks for the feedback. We are roughly on the same page. Since the first Dev & Canary build appeared on 4/8, I was anticipating that Canary daily builds for 4/8 thru 4/14 would count as the 7 versions they would select the "best of" from for a new Dev build on 4/15.

Based on the language, I would expect a new Dev build every 7 days, starting from first Dev release on Monday 4/8 but obviously, that is not the case!
