Perhaps this relates directly to NO new information being released in over 3
years. As far as Mark and Dave not objecting, I have to say a resounding, SO!
The best we're getting is a quick, "shut up and go play with our hobby." This
clamping of give and take is the real problem with seeing things move ahead.
As Mark said, "I long for the days when BEAM was a cool hobby." How do you
innovate from that view?
