gezz leave the man alone lol
i only run a simple #mIRC help channel .. and i get tired of ppl buging me .. if u ask me K puts up with alot :P
can u even fathom the number of emails he gets.. now i get alof of emails .. but its not even a fraction of what he gets flooded with in and out of every singal day (i can only asume)
as far as release dates etc .. this again is only a guess .. but i know when if i were makeing a program for the public (most of what i code i dont release) i wouldnt give a release date.. maybe to my close friends an estimated release date.. and the reason i wouldnt do it is because i wouldnt know when that date was.. u can guess.. but what if you guess early .. mIRC is HUGE .. if he sez .. ok in the ball park of THIS DATE .. but something comes up in his family .. or there is a bug he that is just realy a pain to get ride of .. or a last minit feature he wants to get into the new version .. then i'd guess he needs plenty of time to test everything to make sure its praticly bug free.. so he tests somethign for what .. 3 weeks after last change before release with no bugs.. gives it 1 more week and finds a bug that might take him anouther month to fix .. and then there is the time in testing for bugs again to make sure he gets as many as he can?
of course i can only guess at all this .. thats how i'd be anyway .. i'm sure K has alot beter system then mine .. but still
your askin an aweful lot .. these boards alow you as the general public to express your opnion and report bugs, along with give feature requests
and i do know for a fact that he does read alot of these posts .. at least in the bug reports/feature requests sections.
this board in itself shows how much he cares..
eh .. i could go on .. but i think u get the point.. i hope so anyway :P
