4.1.3 is a massive update in terms of file changes which is why it was delayed. I do have the updated version but i have held it off only becos of 4.1.4. So like i said, sometimes there are other factors which you might not forsee.

But my concern is not with being able to update the style in a "timely" manner (which is entirely subjective anyway). It is saying that X will happen then never following up on X. There are 2 legitimate ways to follow up with X.

1) Fulfill what was announced.

2) If #1 is not possible, provide quick update simply saying "Sorry folks, unforeseen circumstances prohibited us from completing this product in the window of time we previously projected".

Things coming up and not being able to complete X, is entirely understandable. But from a business perspective (I own 2), not following up with anything at all (either the product or the announcement of its delay) is entirely unacceptable for any business.

We understand NOW that there must be a delay. But it shouldn't take negative criticism to bring that out after 6 weeks.
