Is our release date going to be this week, or this month? The waiting is making me very tense. I realise that Richard, Chong, and others responsible for deciding will be feeling this unease much more keenly, and I think I speak for us all in saying that we very much appreciate you bearing this burden. Thanks! Could we release this week? -- Alan Mackenzie (Ittersbach, Germany).
