        Mate, this is a forum. If you insist on having a private conversation, send a pm. Otherwise stay polite when people choose to comment. That's p-o-l-i-t-e. 😡

                I understand your impatience and frustration, I have the same.
                But are you sure we are here in SCF like in a hard-competitive-business-like company, where managers are widely waged, where big benefits justify our exigences ...
                Let not overload Coen with non adequate responsabilities

                  Coen wouldn't have been overloaded at all if he hadn't announced he was going to make an announcement. Juan wouldn't have been bugging him if Coen had updated everyone in a decent manner rather than leaving everyone to wonder what was going on.

                    Hm, yes. Only one little remark: Coen didn't leave us wondering. He told us what happened, and that we'd have to wait. Sh*t happens, right?

                        It's this Saturday which still has some 5 hours, 26 minutes and 20 seconds to go for me.

                        That was his response after several people, including you, were posting to ask what was going on.

                        I sorted out the technical glitch. Should be up in a few hours. Promise, this time.
                        Now stop asking!

                        Nearly nine hours ago. Since then, nothing.

                        Compare the way Coen has gone about with his announcement and the way the new Offset tools were introduced. Fredo didn't make an announcement that everyone would be getting a surprise soon, he simply came out with a fantastic tool.

                        I only hope that this announcement has been worth waiting for, but the way Coen has gone about it has really sucked.

                          OK gang, this is what 'I' think happened

                          Coen has been given info on V7, it could be no more than a release date or it could be a great big presentation of new features, I don't know.

                          Coen was told he could release this info on Saturday.

                          but....

                          Somebody as then contacted Coen and told him NOT to release the said info until (pick a date and time). Because of the obvious NDA (None disclosure agreement) that Coen (and others here) has signed he is unable to even tell us this.

                          If there is info on V7 and if its Coen that has failed to tell us on Saturday then don't you think that the Sketchup site (http://www.sketchup.com) would have putup info at the same time? but they haven't have they?, what does that tell you?, do you think that Google are waiting for Coen? I dont't think so.

                          So basically.....Lets lay off giving Coen a hard time, it must be killing him to have this info and for whatever reason not be able to give it to us.

                          This is, as I said, what 'I' think is happening. I may be completely wrong and before you ask - no, I don't have any inside info myself.

                            well, I think every hour of waiting added 5% of anticipation.

                            I am at 185% now - that I something even my last girlfriend didn't achieve when she was on vacation for three weeks (and she was quite a feast for the eyes)! 🤣

                            when Coen finally releases the news, a whole bunch of lunatics will have tears of joy in their eyes - all arround the world! 😍
                            that is really something worth waiting for, isn't it?

                            to Paul: perhaps we should start writing furious letters to Google, telling them to stop bothering Coen (but we won't do that until we know your theory is right...)

                              Paul,

                              Another (your) guess… but I think you may be right. I came to the same conclusion the very first time that I saw the announcement. Why should Google wait for Coen or anyone else to be the first? It is going to be either “all together” or “Google first”.
                              Personally I don’t mind waiting (quite) a bit longer. There isn’t much that I can not do with SU6 right now.
                              Joking about what is going on backstage is okay but what’s sad is that for some people SU6 all of a sudden doesn’t seem to work anymore. Get it!!!
                              As said before: quite a bunch of impatient people here on these forums.
                              So to all, please get on with your work or continue joking about it if you really wish.

                                It appears you all just envy at the good LEGALIZED news Coen enjoy since last weekend there in Holland 😄

                                  It might be that you're right, Paul... I suppose only Coen can confirm this... 😉

                                  However, what I don't understand is, that if it's that obvious, why couldn't Coen just say so..?? 😕
                                  All these stories about no sleep in 48 hours (+) etc. doesn't make sense... 😒

                                  Coen could just have told us that he received "a call" from Google and because of this he is unable to fulfil what he had promissed us... Wouldn't we all understand a message like that..?? 😐

                                  Based on the comments Coen have posted, I would assume it's something different and that Coen is struggelig with setting-up a Newsletter system...
                                  If not, then I find the messages posted a bit strange... 😐

                                  Any way... I will possess myself with patience and await Coen's newsletter...
                                  Although my curiosity has also been awakened, I'm sure it's worth waiting for... 😄

                                  Cheers
                                  Kim Frederik

                                    We will just have to wait for a new announcement on the announcement of the announcement 😆

                                        Okay, here's my guess: Coen thought of a funny joke to play (innocent April Fool's sort of joke), but some computer demon decided to get in his way. While fighting the computer gods all this hubbub started, so his little joke needed to get hilarious...and the more complaints get posted, the more he has to work on what is now probably a monster to him...?

                                          Hear's a thought about timing:
                                          On Monday June 9th the Apple WWDC (World Wide Developer Conference) starts in SanFran, a lot of OSX apps are currently releasing updates as one of the many things going on are Apple Design Awards......

                                          Now maybe just maybe Google are hoping to win one (Of course they are stupid!) and for that they need a nice shiny new/updated application.......

                                          Now they arnt going to want to announce on the day as the launch will be lost in a sea of other launches not to mention the cough iPhone 2.0 cough so.....

                                          I think we'll hear soon, real soon

                                          PS
                                          I think this is what anglaret was hinting at.
