HoloToolkit-Unity: Are we ready to move HoloToolkit and your projects to Unity 5.5 beta releases?

- We will mark a release version for the master branch for Unity 5.4. So you can still use that code.
- Then we can move master onto Unity 5.5.
We want to ensure you get enough time to make this move.
We will make this move on November 7th.
This gives everyone a 2 week breaking change notice.

Hi @neerajwadhwa Will the HoloLens Technical Preview (HTP) version be merged with the 5.5B*. Currently there seems problems with Standard Betas to 5.5B8 and functionality seems "missing".
Are HoloLens still having a separate HTP version?
Unity have provided an Upgrading to Unity 5.5 beta which may help some people in upgrading. Does not cover Holographic HoloLens.
The Unity site has been affected by DDoS attack
This may affect your download of the 5.5 Beta, with error message 404 page does not exist.
Just try again while later
We should not move the HTK master branch to 5.5 beta and wait for 5.5 release.

We should still make a branch that supports 5.5 beta so when Unity does release 5.5 we can facilitate an easy transition.

Is the 5.5 update of HTK already complete? I can't see a branch for it - if there were a branch then we can build it locally and try it out.
It's being rolled into the main branch of the Unity Editor.
You can download the 5.5 beta here.
Unity will be releasing 5.5 in November anyway, and I think it might be best to wait to move the master branch into 5.5 then.

Just looked at release notes for 5.5b11 and says Holographic Remote and Simulator at now broken!. Looks like 5.5b10 ONLY version ok. The wait continues ! 2017?
Folks sorry for not closing on this thread. We are incubating a big input module breaking change in the ExtensibleInputModule branch and hence we delayed branching for Unity 5.5 to keep things simple.
