When the new release was sent out, I didn't upgrade. I'm still using 1.18.3 (5) with Nicholaz. Has 1.18.4 settled down at all? Is it safe to upgrade yet? I'm starting to see issues with 1.18.3(5).

The quick description from of Dale's client from Nicholaz, plus pointer to Dale's website:

Nick has used some of Dale's fixes and, I think, vice versa.

I can't say it's any better.. just more of the same, frankly. Oh, and the chevrons, that's different.

yes he is another bug-fixer like nicholaz, but he seems to lean more toward adding his own features such as built-in radar, an integrated databse to store your infos on things, a way to switch to different alts and so on.
i dont have a link, but if you google dale glass you can find his blog.
the client is very stable and is a voice capable viewer with the oldschool style menus/dialogues.

According to what he said himself, he's not a bugfixer, but "just" adds new features. So don't try his viewers if youre looking for a more stable SL experience. His client versions are the same as the official ones, with extra features like avatar search helpers that monitor AVs across the whole sim.
