It's not exactly a beta-version,is it? So why would we have to loose time over it?

I agree with you, Are we suposed to be the testers? while doing our development? I mean It is not only a non-beta version, but a release AND we are also paying for the License. So Why should we receive such a bad service?
At the moment we are mantaining our Designs with Quartus 9.2sp2 ( with Full License) and I recently had some trouble with "Incremental Compilation" and Logic Lock Regions. ( Which are available only on the Licensed version and not in the web-version )
They recognize there was a problem on the software and that it will be reported to the software guys. but after a while this is what they respond to me.

Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately, Altera Service Request only support Quartus version begining with 10.0 to 10.1 SP1 (latest version).
Thus, I would like to suggest customer to use the latest Quartus to avoid the internal error.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

This is what happens when I try to do it on the "Right Way" via an "Official Channel" of support with mySupport from Altera.
So.. what do we have left???
1.- Migrate to ****y version of Quartus 10 + Buying Again the License?
2.- Stay with Quartus 9.2(full license) + Do not use theese features (Why do we spend that money on licencing?)
3.- Take on acount while doing a budget planning, a lot of aditional hours to be "playing" and debuging "alteras's software". ( I dont think our client will like that one.
4.- If a new development is starting, Think twice on the tools before suggesting to the client making a design with an Altera FPGA.
Thanks good I have also a Xilinx ISE License, but there are always some clients that want altera, not knowing what it represents for us :-( :mad:
