Dear Devs,
Can I clarify that the latest Joplin release (v3.5.10 ) is supposed to be a pre-release?
I only ask as I have been waiting for mixed case tags for so long now (6yrs 2mths and counting, if you are interested) and I was hoping for a Joplin 3.5.x full release around now ...
I realise that the full release will be released when it is ready but do you have just a vague estimate as to when that may be because... well ... mixed case tags ... waiting ... many years ...
(Posted with a smile, not a rant)
I did notice as well the planned release window was missed. Likely the release is imminent
Yes—the final release is planned for some time in the next few days.
Edit : See Release v3.5.11 · laurent22/joplin · GitHub .

Really looking forward to putting this annoyance behind us. Awesome to hear the release is imminent.

Well, it’s official now. And it looks like you got a special mention in the release notes @dpoulton
# What's new in Joplin 3.5
## Improvements across desktop and mobile
### More stable and consistent Markdown editing
The Markdown editor has been refined to feel more stable and closer to the final rendered view. Headings in the editor now more closely match how they appear when viewing a note, reducing the visual jump between editing and reading. Layout issues have also been addressed so elements like rendered checkboxes and images no longer cause the editor to shift unexpectedly while typing.
The ABC music notation plugin appeared to be popular but had some limitations. With this new version, ABC is now part of the app, which means it can now work from published notes, and from the Rich Text editor!
### Smoother switching between notes
Switching between notes is now less disruptive. Joplin restores cursor position and scroll location more reliably, making it easier to move back and forth between notes—especially when working with longer documents or comparing content—without losing your place.
### Case insensitive tags
Tags are now treated in a case-insensitive way, which helps prevent duplicate tags caused by differences in capitalisation, while still allowing mixed-case tag names. All this time we were hoping that @dpoulton [would just get used to lowercase tags](https://discourse.joplinapp.org/t/tags-lower-case-only/4220/106), but 5 years later it looks like it's not happening ;) So thank you @mrjo118 for implementing it!

Given enough time, water can wear down a mountain!
(even if 'wearing down a mountain' involves a person turning up who says, "What's all the fuss about?" and instantly makes the mountain disappear!)
