The original date was going to be August 10 but due to two things it failed to eventuate. The first thing is the fact I didn't initially plan on having 131 fee share holders and it took 4 extra days to deal with all of this manually. The second thing is that I've implemented many more features to make this update very special. Here is part of the current *done* feature list.
The current plan is to have it ready between before August 24. This date could also slip but that's my current aim date.Anyone who wants a refund is welcome to ask for one. I still have all the Bitcoins and a growing waiting list of 70 people who want shares.
