Here is a question we can ponder while waiting, which of the following would generate more complaints/annoyance in the community:
Giving an estimated date that is not firm and then possibly having to postpone it past that date
(saying we will try to get it out next wednesday but make no promises)
OR
Saying nothing and have everyone sit around wondering and filling up threads with anticipation.
I know Scawen prefers to not give any date and just release it when he can thinks fit, but wouldn't even a vague estimate be better than nothing? It just seems like people will complain about it not being out early enough whether you post an expected date or not, so what is gained by not saying anything?
