There are NO dates for SU 7.

Gaieus

For me the most convenient way would be to delete the whole thread (no dates for SU 7 anyway).

plot-paris

true. loads of words and no real message behind it. you definitely have my blessing for that. remove the whole thing

Gaieus

Then what about the growing post count?
10 pages = nearly 250 post!

I can think of more threads this applies to.
The 'Are you ready for news about SU7?' thread for instance.
After more than 10 pages, I think we can conclude that YES, we are ready for news.
Unfortunately, there is no real info on 7 in that thread at all.

Gaieus

Kwist,

You exactly know that "real info" cannot / should not / will not be leaked about any future or beta releases. So any speculation on the forums about SU 7 for instance is just stabbing in the dark.

kwistenbiebel

Yes I know.
I should have put more 'winks' in my post above.

Okay then I'm all in for the new name Catch-UP and want to join in on the poll.

"Mein Kampf" and the "xxxx" are both full of s...

Bruell

So What did I say about fun and R...? wasn't I right? ohhh J.....

Well anyone who wants to wipe this whole thread out be welcome. Why would I care? Just send me a note when SU finally gets announced, thanks.

Gaieus

Bruell,

A discussion board is here for you guys to discuss things so I won't delete the thread.

I just wanted to remind people that it has gone totally off topic here and there and even turned into some kind of ranting with each other.

This may be appropriate in the Corner Bar but I'd really like to see the SketchUp Discussion Forum free from such content.

Maybe just lock the thread so it will eventually fade out into the abyss?

Bruell

You're right Gaieus,

We all here got side tracked and I promise not to talk about anything unrelated from now on.... promise.

Maybe we could use a little bit of something here to discuss.... a hint, give us something, maybe related to the release date of SU7. That would surely put us all back on track, wouldn't it?

idraft

remove the thread. after all there arent any answers here relating to the question posted. saves people going through all pages in the glimmer of hope that they might actually get one..hahaha.

PS just posted a new Google group check it out at http://groups.google.com/group/sketchup-pro-jobs

Bruell,

This is how it goes (generally speaking, not particularly about SU 7).

The GSU Team develops the new product - adds feature that are "mature" enough to launch, sorts out bugs that are there etc.
Whenthey think it is ready for beta testing, the tests start but no-one (even the GSU Team) knows how long they are going to go on because it all depends on the succes/speed of sorting out the issues.
Even whenthe developers (GSU Team) already has some clue when the launch is due, they won't tell anyone.
So there are no hints around I'm afraid.

Idraft,

I will edit the topic title so no-one has to read through it with a vain hope.

This is just a guess, but I am pretty sure Aidan has a new Sketchup book coming out in the next couple of months, and if history repeats than SU7 comes out within a week of its launch.

Publication date pushed back to March 2009. Read in to that what you will ...
