My post was based on the reply about a June - October release date and the don't ask mentality. I did not realise that the post I replied to was from someone who doesn't "know anything about it". Joke or not it was not appropriate to post IMO due to the fact that we all pay good money to Infopop and put faith in them to keep .threads quite a few steps ahead of the open source bb's available. I'm sorry if that sounds harsh but it's how I feel. That reply did reflect on Infopop when I read it and had no effect at all on how I feel about this site and all it offers.
The first time I read that post it struck a nerve and I kept quiet until I re-read it today. It still bothered me so I posted a reply. I have personally spoken to Chuck via PM and e-mail in the past and I think he's a nice guy, particularly helpful too but that aside it was inappropriate regardless the number of times the question is asked IMO.
In any case I stand corrected and I'd like to thank you for pointing out the fact that had I read the annoucement forum at Infopop, I would realise that there is a new release every two or three months although I was referring to major releases with new features.
One of my new members who migrated from an open source aviation forum yesterday asked for some of the features they had over there. I went out on a limb and advised that member that Infopop is surely on top of what the free bb systems are offering and the features are in the works for later releases, although 6.5 looks to be primarily an administrator release (as mentioned above) and won't affect our members in any significantly noticable way. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy that .threads is going to introduce what .classic has had for some time already.
In any case, you are right I've only been a .threads customer for 3 months or so. 6.4 was just released when I upgraded from .classic. Again I based my reply on what I read and assumed to be true.

One thing to keep in mind is that 99% of this community is users. If it doesn't come from Scream or Navaho, then it is just conjecture and speculation...or just for fun. If its got LOL in it, that's usually a good clue that its light harted.
