   COSMIC Alpha 5.1 was tagged today, and among the improvements it brings are across the board reductions in memory usage of all COSMIC components. This has been done through optimizing font and icon caching, which was overly aggressive. Future releases will continue to drive down resource usage!

     @soller Honest question do you think the currently layed out beta to first release time line will happen or do you expect there to be a few more alphas before that first beta tag.

     @BrodieOnLinux All I am sure of, is there will be an alpha 6. Many of us had quite a bit of time off with vacations during November and December, so I expect alpha 6 to have a long list of added features compared to 5 and 4. If we hit all the important features for MVP, we will do a feature freeze for the beta, then as many betas as needed to resolve issues. During the beta, we will bring in QA and focus on bug fixes and polish. I don't know how long it will take to hit these milestones.
