There may be 'numerous' bugs between Vista and mIRC, but none of them (in my opinion) should be considered serious. With that in mind, I'd assume that Khaled wants to get as many bugs solved as possible before he releases the next mIRC version. I'd rather see 1-2 significant releases, instead of 10 minor updates that are only being done to satisfy the currently incredibly small portion of mIRC users who use Vista.
