Everyone - please stop asking for specific times. We are not going to be handing them out. The date and timeframe we gave already is what you are going to get. Just sit back and relax and be patient, and try and lay off the SunnyD.

Can i just ask, is whatever release time you've chosen a non-ridiculous time for us English. Some of us are dying for NSv2.0 but have to work the next day. And having it released at 1-2am or something (on the 1st, i might add) is a bit annoying. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

1.0 was released around 4pm EST, if I recall correctly. I have no estimates for the release time of 2.0.
If I'm at home I can help with the BitTorrent sharing.
