Thank you, Steve. The article was fair, IMHO, and it addresses some 
usability/documentation issues that really need to be addressed before the 
release of 1.4. What I was missing was an unequivocal statement that 1.3.3.1 
is a development version. Mr. Klein was correct in writing that it is a work 
in progress, but he never made clear that FOSS knows stable releases as much 
as proprietary software does. He somehow continues to support the widespread 
prejudice that for FOSS projects "the journey is the reward" is more 
important than reliable software. But this may have been unintentional.

Nevertheless, we had the incredible and unexpectedly positive review in PAGE 
and now this one at designorati.com. The pros are starting to notice what's 
going on, and this is what really matters, since most of them are real "brand 
fetishists".
