Any 1 tried new Timeline in homepage from SVN?

I just downloaded the latest SVN and tested the 7.2. There is a new timeline in homepage along with the existing outline. What this timeline does it totally different. Any member can post in that timeline and feed from all members will pile up there..even tiny notifications from spy also included in it. Plus thing is that you can comment on any post in there. Wondering will it be a suitable for a website having more than 100 members?

I'd like to see a filter on it so users could select what type(s) of content to display.  A time range filter would be nice also.

Good catch! Yes, this is the only "feature" addition since Beta1. Besides being displayed on Homepage (optionally, of course) Timeline has been generally improved. We removed unnecessary UI elements and streamlined what's left. 

In my opinion Timeline on homepage is a great tool for small sites - especially those that work as a refugee camps of Facebook groups. When people are used to having a "Feed" as the main interaction platform this would be a must. 

As HL noted, it will require some filtering and probably admin settings to be useful for more webmeisters. That'll come. We should try it in action and see what exactly is needed to make it better. Feedback is very welcome!

I personally thought this timeline could be used for groups the way it is right now. For home page it can be used only if a user is following/subscribed some 1. This will give the option to a user if they want the feed from a particular friend or not by simply subscribing or unsubscribing him/her and also feed from any other thing they have subscribed.

I really like the timeline on the home page. Overdue.

However, since the Timeline in general was so primitive in previous versions of dolphin, like many others I purchased EVO Wall for all my sites. Members love it.

With 7.2, I'm not sure what to use since Timeline (now improved) & EVO don't "talk" to each other (ie: posts/comments on timeline don't reflect on EVO and vice versa).

I can't use them both. But, each has features the other is lacking.
