Downhill, not tried cross country yet.
Just got back, now to make a cuppa' and try to get some work done.
What are people's thoughts on moving straight on to 1.7?
How long do we expect to be stuck with 1.6? I don't want TT to constantly be behind on minecraft versions.
edit: I was just reviewing the stats for TT over at mcstats. Very surprised to see people still using it on 1.5, that wasn't even stable on my few player test server...

I think you should do 1.6.4, its going to be like Ultimate where its a long term version that will be played for a long time. Give it some time before moving to 1.7, in my opinion 1.7 is a nightmare, with Mojang going to from 1.7.2 to 1.7.9 freakishly fast because of the all the bugs introduced.
I agree. Stay on 1.6.4 for now. The majority of mods aren't for 1.7 yet and almost every single Modpack is for 1.6.4 currently. So I believe that releasing for 1.6.4 will give players the most benefit. Plus with the rate of updates to 1.7.x by mojang I feel its best to let them settle on a build before starting to work on something that very well may get broken a week later.
Edit:
Also many mods currently still actively develop and update for 1.6.4. And many that are on 1.7.x maintain a 1.6.4 version as well so I think 1.6.4 is far from dead.

I agree with everyone else saying 1.6.4. Who knows how long it will take the FTB team to get a stable 1.7 pack. I know a lot of server owners are eagerly anticipating TT for 1.6.4.
If you take a look at server lists you will still find a lot of big 1.4.6 servers that advertise with tickthreading and no lag thanks to it. So I would assume that a 1.6.4 build would be worth it but only if you think it would be possible to create a "stable/usable" build within 2-3 months. One question, if you would create a 1.6.4 version would that speed up 1.7 or would it be double work? Besides that would it be much work to only create a patcher, that we could patch mods with ease that use linked lists instead of hashsets and more of that stuff like the gregtech ic2 issue with the enegery levels..?
By an overwhelming 100% majority looks like we'll be on 1.6 for now. AbrarSyed is helping to get TT's prepatcher working with the new ForgeGradle build system, you can follow the discussion over at issue #1053.
Well, i'll of course the be one that tips the scale!
Yes, definitely good that this is being updated again (thanks!), and was kinda hoping 1.7 would be the focus. I know a lot of mods are still on 1.6, but why not bite the bullet and jump on 1.7.2. MCP is already @ 1.7.2 so its only a matter of time before authors update their mod to 1.7. If you dont, then TT will be 2 major versions behind when 1.8 is released.So I vote 1.7!
Well, looks like there is a 1.7 placeholder out there... disabled, but there!

Now with 80% less compile errors, lets hope the rest comes this easy: https://github.com/nallar/TickThreading/commit/29e9977433f6da3fe3c44b989db8e189b8aa8425
@nallar: You should totally have a Patreon page, you might not make as much as the big mods but it would be a fairly stable monthly income. I know I could afford to give a few bucks to someone that puts this much work into something.

Good news, can probably expect a testable version tomorrow. Testable as in it might run for a few minutes with 1 person online, but still technically testable!
No guarantee that a testable release will actually exist tomorrow, of course. ETAs are almost always wrong.

The latest builds should now be testable. DO NOT INSTALL ON A SERVER INTENDED FOR ACTUAL USE. Running on a copy of a known working server is a good idea.
For now, please only report issues that fit into one of these categories:
* Noticeably broken in-game while trying to play
* Errors in console AFTER the server has finished starting
* Crash on startup
If you just get warnings on startup, do not report these yet.

Suggested things to test across chunk boundaries:
* AE systems
* BC pipes, liquid pipes and power pipes
* Factorization barrels
