When is ZCA 7 leaving beta status?

I attended the V7 launch webinar, and I thought they said that ZCA would be leaving beta in late February, but that's come and gone... I'm reluctant to move our company to ZCA when it is on the cusp of a version update.

I would also like to know when this is going to be or at least a reasonable time frame. We are in the process of planning our first internal mail platform for our company and had settled on Exchange 2010 until recently stumbling upon Zimbra.

We will be testing the platform over the next couple of weeks and if it fits our needs will more than likely deploy within three weeks and would like to have a stable release to do that on.

Wow, this lack of response of any kind has me totally rethinking whether I can trust Zimbra with my business. Do Zimbra staff not monitor their own forums?

ZCA 7.0 will GA towards the end of Q2. Any ZCA version you deploy today will have an upgrade path to the ZCA 7.0.

And nothing stopping anyone installing say Ubuntu 10.04 64bit and using zimbra GA on that in a VM. should be about the same as ZCA

Brian, thank you for the response.
Dave, that's not entirely true. The licensing model going that route is twice the price.
