@jaykie : on release dates we are a little bit more "alert" to be able to help you guys in the best way possible.

I think people realized, that we have been so criticized by the other people in the community of developers for not being open source app, so we try to excel in other sections, I think our relationship with you (the real users, our "costumers") is pretty good, and we keep the answers quite fast, we implement the changes requested (when they fit the concept) and I personally try to answer each question in the best way possible. (of course I'm human and I do get pissed when people don't do a search before posting - but who cares :P )

I would like to really pass forward our "way" of working, not if we are or not opensource app. So we do believe in user centered design, but we also believe that sometimes you need someone to take decision on some controversial subject (even if it's not a goode decision).

I really like the way things are going here in the community, you guys send us a lot of feedback, and we try to give you good updates as fast as we can (I know sometimes it seems to take too much time).

So, in the end, my speed is a way to show respect and thank you, and also I try to protect the team. Protect in the sense of : they have so much stuff to do, that I can take care of the problem heres so we can speed up canola development even more Team work always (of course they are also here : Morpheuz, Chenca, Ulisses, Barbieri, Kenneth, Etrunko, Caio)

Owo, sorry for the long post
