Sorry, was just (unfairly) venting a little.
I know you guys are hard at work, but you never go "Hey, look at this progress we made!!!" for the stuff you have already finished, outside of mgdev and svn. Also haven't posted much in the way of "What we really, really, hope to do before we think about releasing this." Just a thought, and on this rant, I think a fair portion of the community agrees with me.
Then again, if you said that a certain dropped feature would be in there as long as the community does the a lot of the work (and ourselves, in a reciprocating way) and its up to par, might give us something to do while we wait for it to come out.
For instance, vchat was cancelled because Dolby dropped off the radar and you didn't have all the voice-work you needed. If you said that if the community contributed the sound work, of sufficient quality and consistency, then there might just be a bunch of fans with mics cropping up, trying to do their part.
After all, thats part of what makes open-source software communities great.
