Calm down guys, at least 20 people have seen a demo and given it
favorable comments. Mark has explained he is working the code through
the review needed to release it, but if you arrange a time with him, he
can show it to you as some form of webcast. Please, if you want to see
it, talk to Mark and arrange a time you can be available that works for him.
