Re: [android-developers] Re: When can every developer reply to reviews?
Hey all, You're right that Google rarely if ever shares release dates or promises new features, and this post won't be any exception. I can say, though, that we met with the PM in charge of the Play pubsite yesterday, and had a great discussion about how to improve the review and feedback process for everyone. I think you'll be very happy with what they've got planned. Ian On Wednesday, December 5, 2012 12:32:30 AM UTC-8, Brill Pappin wrote: Haha.
