Good Lord, Antonio, I could have quoted that one by heart. So, I know
the deal, but if it is so crippled that it fails, releasing it on us
might not be a great experience. We do expect ~most~ things to work, in
Beta Fashion, but not as in Alpha fashion. Since I have not tried it, I
can't say from my experience, but others are plainly very unhappy, so
that makes me a tad nervous. Iron out the major stuff, then release.
IMHO. Ric
