Can we get an update from pfsense team on 24.08 status?

@behemyth
24.08 is a very ambitious release.
Injecting APIs into aging/legacy firewall code aint easy. I will say this...
The unifi product line had a controller as the base of its product line. Cant really operate the unifi products without a unifi network application.
Palo Alto didnt release Panorama on the first release of PanOS. It took hundreds of devs and years to develop (and Panorama is still buggy AF).Same with Fortigate.
The scale of these companies compared to Netgate is quite large so with that i get why its taking so long and if we are taking bets, why there will most likely be a delay in MIM.
That said, if the marketing promise of pfsense plus is 3x releases a year and we ending September with only 1x release.....Gotta say..Not a good look. Im trying to be objective here but you look at the competitive landscape and the mind starts to wonder... -

Especially Panorama - something you and I are in every single day at work. LOL

If they are planning on releasing this in Oct, then I hope they plan on releasing updates very soon.

As soon as we can....

As this Category has been Renamed to 24.11 I guess the 24.08 Release was scrapped? Redmine also doesn't have a 24.08 anymore.
Some transparency in that regard would be nice

It was just renamed (numbered?) since the actual release had to be pushed out.
