Thanks for the tidbits.  I really appreciate it.  I understand why you  
want to limit time spent on answering 2.0 questions.  One small  
suggestion I can offer, is to post little updates that it is coming  
along, even if that is all that is said.

There have been a handful of times where I have invested a lot of my  
time in learning something, or worse, code in a legacy language,  
assuming progress was being made.  This mostly dates back to the OS 9  
to OS X transitions days.

I sit with a lot of my time invested in products that never moved  
forward.  Knowing that TM 2.0 is coming, is about all I would ever  
need to know to continue to use this version, knowing there is not  
going to be some awful day when I am forced to retrain my brain to a  
new editor, cause a new OS bump came out.

Just some food for thought.  Not everyone is on the mailing list, and  
most I suspect just look at the website.
