You know well that I'll bring you the information when I have it. ;) Patience.

Q u o t e: it's more like you bring us information when you have it.. after we ask for it.
Really? I was under the impression that I posted the changes up and coming for Hunters in 1.6 on my own volition when the information was made available to me. Did someone go back in time and change history? ;)

The design can change, as can the expected date -- we tend not to share such information until we are confident of its implementation in that form due to the reaction the boards has had regarding changed information in the past.

We've already stated that Hunter and Druid changes are going in for 1.7. We give more information when we have it available -- I'm not sure what you're asking for, Saleen, besides perhaps an Under Development page update.

Q u o t e: Parsing this I conclude that the design is complete, but might change and coding has started.
I further parse this to mean you use an iterative development process with no controls as to when a design is allowed to change nor any confidence that the design you are implementing is going to be the final design.
This explains the bugs, lack of timeline and apparent lack of orderly progression of projects at the organization.
Having been there, I realize the reality; and now that I do, I'll stop posting on the topic; clearly tilting at the Blizzard windmill isn't going to do anyone any favors.
Best of luck with the codebase; at least you have the revenue to fix just about anything and millions of semi-willing testers :-)
Your conclusions are interesting but incorrect. The fact of the matter is that even slight changes or delays have been met with extreme hostility; as such, we are very cautious with our previews.

Q u o t e: Just post all the 1.7 notes before somebody leaks them like last time.
:P
A leak at this time would be difficult considering the patch notes don't exist yet. :P
