        Three reasons.

        Number 1: Have a look at Opera 15, the first new Opera release after Opera 12. Compare it to Opera 28. The difference is night and day.

        Number 2: If they weren't going to release improvements, why would they continue development at all? If they don't change anything it would be a new release.

        Number 3: I use the development release of Opera, which is currently version 30. I've been using it for several versions (since it first featured bookmarks). That is to say, I am in the future compared to everyone using the latest stable release. Every time they promote a build of Opera to development release they add features and improve existing ones. If past performance is any indication they will get around to it eventually.

          @lando242 Would you recommend me to switch from the beta to the development release? 🙂

            It depends on if and how you can deal with (serious) bugs and even the possibility of losing data.

              On my computer or just Opera?

                    On a recent build, drop down menus weren't working.

                    The latest one may not load pages if you are using XP.

                    There were cases of crashes also.

                      How fast do new builds come out?

                        About as often as they are ready.

                          Usually 1 or 2 builds per week but it may vary.
