Ia NX 8.5.1.3 available for customer download yet? I don't see it on the GTAC support site today.

To the Toolmaker, your nice little cartoon drawing of your glass looks cool, but your solid model sucks. Do you want me to fix it, or are you going to take all week to get it back to me so I can get some work done?

If NX 8.5.1.3 is not available for customer download yet, when (not about when) will it be?

I know I do. I believe dzupfrg may, also.
What is "silly" is providing an "about when" answer.

RE: NX 8.5
We all live with dates for deadlines. The NX development team has dates to meet for releasing a new version/build. But when it comes to software development and the releated materials, help guides, training, etc, final integration testing and install script development MAY cause a delay by a few days. If your management is pushing for a date, give them something that can be realistic, like March 1. Then if NX8.5mr1 gets out early and you can install it, you have beaten your date that you told management it would be installed by. You look good, Siemens looks good and you can get back to work.

RE: NX 8.5
Company policy does NOT allow us to disclose exact schedules or dates. However, we are given some leaway, responding with an approximation as long as we know that there's a reasonable likelihood that our internal schedules will be met. And since we've already distributed the NX 8.5.1.3 release internally and to our partners, it's highly likely that we will actually make our planned release date, therefore, in compliance with our company policy and guidelines, I felt that my response was both appropriate and 'accurate'. Of course I could have responded instead with something like "Less than 3 weeks", but while this would have been technically more 'correct', it would have also been of less value in terms providing information that would have actually helped people prepare for when they could download and install the update.
Besides, the person who asked the original question seemed to be satisfied with my response and as for my second comment (timestamped: 8 Feb 13 2:21), I was merely trying to make the point that perhaps a more careful reading of the previous responses would have provided the information being sought.

Note to users........pad any time estimates that you get from these insider sources, so you will look good to your managenemt when software updates are late.
And learn to read more carefully.

RE: NX 8.5
One system install and internal testing before I roll any upgrade out to my users for production work. Depending on what I am verifying for changes, the software could be a week or two after downloading before the production system is upgraded.
I have been burned in the past by dowloading a release 'too early'. Siemens has improved their release procedures based on what I and a now Siemens product manager did at UG2V6 with a critical patch for the manufacturing module.

As usual the info was useful.

RE: NX 8.5
I downloaded and installed the NX 8.5.1 on Saturday.
Could you confirm that they are no news inside, only bugs fixed ?

RE: NX 8.5
So, YES, I think it would be safe to say that we consider NX 8.5.1.3 to be basically a maintenance release only.
