Why not? Because your team has a coordinated\r\nupgrade policy. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>I\r\noften work with teams who have standardized on a specific release of Simulink. For\r\nthem, rapid upgrading is not an option. With that in mind, if you can't upgrade\r\nto R2008a, I want to let you know that bug fixes to the R2007b versions of\r\neight core Simulink family products are now available online. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Who\r\ncan't upgrade?<\/strong> <\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>While\r\nwe always recommend that people upgrade to the latest version of Simulink, we\r\nrealize this isn't possible for everyone. People in this situation are often part\r\nof large, extended teams, or they may be required to deliver models in a\r\nspecific version to another company. While this is a nuisance in some ways, it\r\ncan save a lot of trouble. For example, if people in the Widget Drive Train\r\nteam take advantage of a brand new Simulink feature, then their colleagues in\r\nthe Widget Engine Control Team who didn't install the new release may not be able\r\nto share work or integrate their models. This is why guidelines as simple as\r\nthe specific version to use for a project are so important. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>How\r\ndo I find out when a bug is fixed?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>MathWorks\r\npublishes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mathworks.com\/support\/bugreports\/\">bug reports<\/a>\r\n(requires login) for all customer reported bugs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.mathworks.com\/images\/seth\/2008Q2\/BugReports.png\" alt=\"Bug reports\"><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>If\r\nyou have reported a bug, or discovered a bug report you are interested in, you\r\ncan subscribe to that bug report to receive updates when anything changes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.mathworks.com\/images\/seth\/2008Q2\/AddToEBRWatchList.png\" alt=\"How to add a bug report to your watch list\"><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>You\r\ncan even customize\r\nthe bug reports to show only products and releases that you care about.
