Just thought I would chime in to the conversation for a moment.

We are waiting, as anxiously as anyone (maybe more), for the forums update also.  Having worked with Chris for the last several years now, I know him to be a very productive, very committed and very quality conscious guy.  But most of you guys already knew that *grin*.  Over the last few months, there have been several occasions upon which Chris has inquired about our readiness to dogfood... and YES... we're ready!

All of our projects run a little differently; and this IS the nature of things.  Can it be improved?  Yes.  But finding folks willing to do the enormous work of managing projects is a difficult business.  Not only is there a lot to do just to create a good application, but there is also drudgery of managing issue logs, dealing with infrastructure out of your control, handling inquiries & forums, etc.  This year we're going to be working very hard to make life a little easier for team & community contributions alike.  But the willingness to step-up and be responsible long-term is still a pretty rare gift.

Join me in giving Chris a little positive encouragement.  It would not surprise me to hear from him about "readiness to dogfood" again here real soon ;)

Cheers

I do appreciate the efforts of the team, however, as I have been using the latest forum module for over a year now with some very significant bugs the only things I know from the team are some 9 months of being led on and with nothing whatsoever made available to sort the bugs.

Of course that will change when I see something but at the moment it's no different to a year ago apart from me being told for the last 9 or so months that they are releasing a fix soon.

1. Many of us have been asking for bug fixes as a single priority but this isn't what has happened.

2. We ask for an idea when the module may be released... and we are either told nothing, or told that it looks weeks away and then given no further information.

All I had really been wanting was a fix for the notifications which just don't work right.
