Dave, thanks for your comments. It's nice to hear positive feedback after 
weeks of nothing but hearing about 'stop ship' bugs and relentless work.

I'd also like to second his comments. I think that one of the most 
powerful statements about the state of  the 4.0 SDK is that we've been 
using it to handle all of the work we've been doing during this 'crunch' 
period and it hasn't slowed our development speed at all. This is during a 
time when *anything* that would have gotten in the way would have been met 
with "Aaargh, I don't have time for this"..

We're also finally at the point where we're starting to get comments from 
various members of the team about using 3.6 who a) don't realize it's not 
4.0 and b) can't figure out why they can't drop the 'x' view in the editor 
stack..;-).

Onwards, (there's a light in the distance...a light at the end of the 
tunnel !!)
Eric

[e4-dev] Latest I-build / progress update
Sent by:

Team,

I have to say I've been working with the I-builds since last Friday and 
that I *REALLY* like the progress being made.  

The UI changes feel tasteful, modern, and sensibly done.  I especially 
like the new gray background around the part stacks and the subtle drop 
shadow to the right and below the stacks.

And of course we all appreciate that a lot of the glitchy bugs are going 
away--like being able to click an editor tab to switch to it.  And too 
many others to name...

A tiny progress update from my end:  I've solved the DI/configuration 
issue I emailed about two days ago and am finishing validating our code 
against the latest E4 drops.  Paul W, you should see the bug report 
requesting to be added to the build soon.

A big thanks to everyone who is working so hard to make E4 possible.  
We're not quite there yet but things are really starting to look nice.


Best Regards,

Dave Orme
