Count yourself lucky we at least got a sometime this year acknowledgement. If I had to take a further guess I'd say second half of the year.
Let me poke the man unabashedly, my friend, lest he sees through the ruse.
Poke Ben and Paul too much and they'll just tune us out and you don't want that to happen. Like I said we're lucky we got a ball park response; they could have just blown us off and used the old 'it'll be out when it's ready' and left things just as murky as before.
