The comments you made in the RB about the block you put in limbo (Block Permissions) would be a good topic of NEWS. These are things our community as a whole needs to hear from you more often.

I like the ideas generated by those comments. It allows me to solidify presentational information when talking to users groups and potential clients.

I know your busy with all these things but I believe this is the type of information you and Andrew need to publish as often as you can. This will allow us to discuss and ensure that clients get the right information without flaming other systems and philosophies.

Not sure how your ISH timelines work in the end, but at least we know things are coming along.

hey Bill,

I don't think there's anything particularly newsy about that policy - our marketplace is curated more than other open source projects. Love it or leave it. ;)

I do recognize that we started something cool with totally random and then abandoned it after 9 episodes which I know drives Mnkras and others up the wall. All I can tell you is fear not. There's big exciting stuff in the works and its more fun for me to keep it a surprise.

The functionality of Totally Random (giving away karma prizes, announcing new add-ons, pointing out cool showcase items) will all be recovered in different, more effective ways soon.

The quirkiness of Totally Random will also remerge in a new easier to swallow form.

In the meantime, there's an awesome video of the team rocking it out in Ryan's jeep on youtube, and in terms of news - yeah big stuff in the works..

You'll like it.
