Well, as far as I understand (please do not take this as an
official statement of RIT labs, I'm not affiliated to them at all; the
only thing is that since I'm Russian I've got better chances of
communicating with them on "their own ground", that's all), they
decided not to focus on rewriting the help file for 1.xx series
since the upcoming 2.x will be in many aspects of it's GUI quite
different from the current version, therefore they are quite likely
to focus on writing a better online help for 2.x.
Note however that the *official* (i.e. non-beta) 2.x apparently
won't be released in the nearest future, so this very list will
probably remain the best (and almost only:-)) source of
additional info about the program for the new users of it.
Hence I fully support the opinion of Paula Ford expressed in
her most recent posting: let's concentrate on helping people
rather then on personal attacks on them.
