I can certainly understand that a company wants control of their
message both in terms of content and timing. Look at MS as a great
company that doesn't control it as much as they wish (witness some of
the Longhorn videos on Utoob or the Gates announcement of the next
Windows generation coming out next Summer?). So much can be
misinterpreted, etc., especially when we are talking about paradigm
changes like the plugin could be.
But having said (written?) that, the conference is just as binding/
public a channel of announcement (outside of the NDA session) as
websites, press releases, etc. I know that personally as I have stuck
my size 11's in my mouth quite a few times in previous incarnations by
saying something in conferences that I felt was mainly intended for
the audience in the room.
I doubt that Lynn is not honestly reporting what he heard at RevRun
and doubt that Mark is not honestly trying to manage expectations for
the new features so Revrun doesn't disappoint us.
What we do need to hear is something more substantive than the
newsletter/webpage because nature and Revrunners hate a vacuum. Lynn
is obviously tremendously excited which makes me very very interested!

Reporting about non-existent features is also prediction. I'm
not saying that one shouldn't read your or anyone's blog. I
just want to point out that people should rely on the RunRev
website only, if they want to know which features RunRev has
or will have.
I have to disagree with you Mark. What is reported as "will have" on
RunRev's site is no more predictive that what I reported as coming
from the
mouth of Kevin. But these features seem quite palpable compared with
some
things discussed before as they were discussed in some detail and
some even
demoed. You need a sunshine pill and a candy bar - smile and be
happy :-)
