However, when I see modules that I perceived to be "in production" not
progressing, and then pushed farther down the queue to make way for more
recently conceived modules, then I start to wonder when I can anticipate
the "in production" modules come to the customer purchase stage. It might
help us plan a bit if modules were designated as in the 'idea' stage
(which would include the 'research' prototype stage) or in the
'production' stage (i.e., parts being purchased, ordering to start soon).
Get used to it <grin>!
This has been a "feature" of the MOTM list since early on. There will be a raging debate about a modules layout, then you won't hear anything about that module for a long time while several other modules (which seem to come out of nowhere) are shipped. Sometimes the same debate is relived several times (I think last years mixer debate was the third or fourth time for that module). If I'm not mistaken, the VC Pulse Divider actually precedes the VC Paner/Crossfader module, so it was nice to see Paul mention that one on the last update.
While I'm sure in every case Paul has excellent reasons for changing his shipping order, this used to frustrate me greatly. Now I just look forward to the surprises!
