The Next Generation
Development of WinGate 7 ran from early 2006 until its release in November 2011. Initially labelled WinGate 2007, a technical preview was eventually made available in June 2007, slated for release in early 2008. At this time, a new policy system was introduced, based around a flow-chart decision tree which provided complete user-control over policy structure. Soon after, this the product was re-labelled WinGate 2008. The year 2008 came and went without a WinGate release, as did 2009. Qbik, however, was still in full development of WinGate 7 (as it is now called) and moved their own company gateway to the product in December 2009.
From March 2010 betas of WinGate 7 were made available to people registered in the WinGate 7 beta program.
In September 2010 Qbik officially launched a YouTube channel showing a number of videos showing WinGate 7 in operation. The following month, Qbik opened up its WinGate 7 Beta forum to the general public.
On 28 May 2011 WinGate 7 entered public beta. Then, on 15 November 2011, the first official public releas of WinGate 7.0 (build 3332) was released.
Famous quotes containing the word generation:
“We are better advised and more educated than any other generation of parents. Yet this deluge of literature and advice can also leave us feeling overwhelmed and inadequate. Where is the joy of bringing a child into the world if we are always afraid of making a mistake?”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
