Thanks for the info!
Caio - Did you notice that I am one of the developers?

The original plan was and has been to release it about halfway through the build season. Our true target was last Tuesday; but... the real world got in the way just a bit last week and ...

As I wrote in another thread (Other thread)- The real-user code is tee'ed up, and folks are making sure the docs are in order before making the release.

FYI: If you (and anyone else reading this) have time for a short teaching moment - Look at it from our point of view, at least three threads have popped up, in addition to the one we created last season - Updating them separately is a pain in the neck - That is why I point everyone to the two you looked in. When there is news from me/us, it will appear in one of them. Keep an eye on them and remember to tell your friends to always search before starting a new thread.

PS: Lockheed Martin folks in Belleview helped develop this year's version, and they might put on a 5th Gear exhibit at the Seattle Regional. Are you headed there this year?
