Given that the RCL Daily is new and most the others are not, the new tags look very fishy
I'm not even sure what those NEW labels mean. They might have meant something 2 years ago, but nothing labeled new is new to me.
[Y][:(]
I'm also wondering why the RCL is labelled as Daily, but not the Catholic Lectionary?
What really annoys me, though, is that it still can't be printed (the dots don't show up in print)! We've complained about that for more than a year now! How long does it take to fix such a simple thing?

To be fair: I gave up programming years ago and now know next to nothing of it; beyond this one principle: nothing is simple. A simple change from a user's perspective may be hundreds of lines of code which interacts with multiple other subroutines in sometimes unforseen ways; and one stray character in a single line of code can break the whole thing.
Reading that doesn't help the printing problem but it does highlight (for me) the splendiferous wonder of all the intricacy which God has created.
Quite true but in the "new" OO programming good design minimizes the unforeseen (think encapsulation) and maximizes the number of easy fixes. Prototype to production skipping design maximizes the code you describe Thomas.

I'm sure it can, but during this year Logos has launched a whole new Logos website, plus a whole new Vyrso website. Compared to that I would imagine fixing these dots that won't print is a pretty simple thing. They just haven't prioritized it. Just as they haven't prioritized fixing most of the other things we've complained about for a year or more. Like the buttons that should be grey but aren't, or the fact that you can't see your bid on the main CP page like you could before.
You'd only want people to be able to print the dots, if you wanted them to compare / upgrade.
We have updated the comparison chart and RCL Daily Readings now has a "New!" tag.
Hi!
The Comparison charts misses also these new JG package resources:- The Lexham Syntactic Greek New Testament: SBL Edition (3 vols.)- The Lexham Clausal Outlines of the Greek New Testament: SBL Edition
This page should also be updated: http://www.logos.com/4/missingfeatures(PB has already been released, 2011 Q2 is history now).
Because Logos did the reverse of the logical?[:P] (not really see below)
Seriously, in the Catholic lectionary, the daily and Sunday cycles are nearly independent but are compiled as a single resource. In the RCL the weekday readings are related to the Sunday readings but are compiled as a separate resource. I suspect that this is because the RCL daily cycle is used by only a small subset of the churches using the RCL Sunday cycle while everyone using the Catholic lectionary uses both parts.
