ExifTool version 10.00 is now about 5 weeks away. I want this version to be as bug free as possible, so please update to a current version (9.94 or later) and let me know if you find any problems so we can fix them before 10.00.
And to avoid introducing new bugs before version 10.00, I will resist making significant changes or additions to the code for versions 9.95-10.00.
We're in the final stretch before the landmark 10.00 release! -- Let's make it as close to perfect as we can!
Thanks to everyone who has helped so far to get ExifTool to this point.

I totally applaud your enthusiasm :-> but have to mention:
From a user's perspective, a .0 release generally is expected to be bug-ridden, and you'll have to do a lot of explaining why this is different with this app to people not following a dev process. That's b/c in most software, a new .0 number means major new features introduced, so the last "just works" 9.99 might be guessed to be more stable - otherwise the numbering scheme would have continued with 9.100 and so on.

Yes it is. :)

Version 10.00 is now out.
As mentioned, I try to make these production versions as stable as possible, so people shouldn't be afraid to download this new version.
My estimate of 5 weeks turned into a bit more than 14, mainly because I don't spend as much time on the computer when the weather is nice. :) But that works out fine because it gave people a couple more weeks to find bugs in version 9.99. However, none were discovered, but I guess that is OK too.
