...except the wait is due to an internal refactoring that should yield significant benefits. Yourconclusion was predicted by the list in general, but I disagree; the team's still working on Orion, and I figure that people will be more happy once the new versions come out. You'd hope it would be incremental changes as it was in the past (anyone remember the three-versions-a-day times?) but that's simply not realistic considering the changes being put into place. Patience. Enjoy.
