Don't be so selfish. It's never right to expect a release date, he may overrun sometimes, but that's because he wants the best possible version for every. be more patient

i do understand why release dates can get pushed back and of course we all want it just so before its released to us, however even companies like microsoft will give you a date for release in advance of it happening you dont just walk into a store and see a new version of windows sitting there and think when did microsoft release that? so why cannot plus do that, he could post an anticipated date then if there were delays he could post a revised date thats all i was saying.

Yeah, but not everything goes to schedule. Therefore say a PS3 was expected to be released on the 21st of june would you sue the company if they released it on the 26th of june?

I'd rather have a bug free program and wait, than have a buggy program and have it say.. tomorrow.

im not saying that at all my point was that i understand these delays happen but if theres delays that affect a release date the person making the software etc can update the date accordingly.

I already said somewhere this is planned for the first week of December. The reason why I don't give an exact day? because everytime I do, my servers crash :p.

I doubt it, seeing as messenger doesn't itself.

It's a kind of easy replacement for the existing Messenger resources, such as design images, icons, but also strings, window definitions etc. This will allow you even to change the window shapes as well as every text in Messenger. Using advanced options, you may even include different windows for different Messenger locales.

sounds really cool, when this comes out ill definately try to do a skin, however they said scripting would be easy and i cant figure that out so maybe people claiming skinning as idiot proof is a bit much lol.
