Quote - Forget the backroom, NDA  etc. BS. Come out and say this is what we are going to do, these are the resources we are committing (talent and money) and this our timeline. Keep people informed, show progress, get input, have an open beta program yada, yada. In one fell swoop, they calm the anxiety, end the speculation and give people real confidence that they know what they're doing and have a plan.

This, to me, is the most intelligent quote in the thread so far.

Those of us working on the M4WM project know that it's on hold waiting for the guru's to finish contractual agreements with SM. This is no secret. SM has leaked a little hint that they ARE working on figures. 2+2=4. Except, WE shouldn't HAVE to be doing the addition!

I would hope that that SM people who haunt these threads might consider what the company can do to help us out with info, and, in the end, help themselves out with increased interest. (Last time I checked, that translated to increased sales.)
