Sorry for the slow-down in 1.1 info. It boils down to four major issues:
1. What little time the team has to spend, it has spent on making 1.1. 2. I have been unbelievably buried at work. 3. I will be out of the country for the next 3 weeks 4. RR.org was having some major bandwidth issues for the past month, recently fixed by our excellent host.
To counteract this bummer news:
1. We will soon be starting a new feature in the forums that will provide you with TONS of 1.1 news on a daily basis. 2. I will start some big planned PR blitzing when I get back, with tons of images, info, contests, and movies. 3. Ehhh, there is no 3. 4. And no 4 either.
So, there you have it. Patience is the watchword right now, but when 1.1 PR starts, you won't want to (or be able to) miss it.

Thx MonsE for clearing that up and answering my questions, appreciate that you could take time out of your busy schedule to answer me.

erm, i was under the impression from the amount of PT going on that the release would be in 3-4 weeks. yeah thats just my stupid assumption, but the fact that they are planning a lot of PR seems to mean that the release wont be for at least a month after THAT! crap.
Glad you like them <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

We got news from MonsieurEvil, we got word about the the great new weapons (*grin*) and we EVEN got pictures of ONOs using an Etch-a-sketch (classic).
Now if only someone would go with Scinet's suggestion this would be the best thread EVER.
