FormZ is such a piece of 1990's foolishness. I have difficulty believing the company that produces it is capable of any innovation...not that we have been seeing much progress in that area anyway.
Wait and see, we can be surprised...is not impossible.

Scott, I think (assume) Coen means when he finally publishes his news, you will see why it has taken so long.
Coen, as far as I am concerned, no need for you to feel ashamed. You da man!
-
I agree...no need to apologize or feel bad I am sure if you could you would be spilling the beans.

Man Coen - only 60 pages? Sheez.
Wow.

~120 and more sketchup addicts...

Well it sounds like a whole lot of silence from Google about any new developments...at least for the time being.

That covers the ground from everything to nothing, huh?
Coen,
Great job! Quite pleased to have such a wonderful read about our "little" group.
Thanks, and my best, Tom. -
Anyone notice this response from Aidan "The thing about being a part of Google is that it's forced me to think very differently about SketchUp's place in the world. With a free version available, and with Google's reach, we have an opportunity to do a lot more for the design profession than just be a useful 3D modeling tool."

Pete,
Saw it and I am still pondering what the hell that is supposed to mean. I would love to think it is for the good but unless you are a GE user I have a feeling it is not a direction we as modelers will like. Of course we will have to wait and see but my excitement about future releases is nothing like it used to be.

@Solo,
I guess he refers to Sketchup as a tool for Google Earth. So nothing new here
I have the feeling SU7 will concentrate on features that makes SU better at populating G's Earth. -
May be they(
) will divide products like AD made with 3dsmax, revit...
Creation of several commercial products...and lite edition... -
Well done on the newsletter, Coen. No wonder you get no sleep.
@ Kwisten and Solo: yup, what Aidan Chopra said reeks of GE. Still, I cannot fathom Google isn't aware of both SU's limitations and potential.
-
Top marks for the newsletter. Really informative and helpful. I've only skimmed it so far but I will probably go back and read every page. Very impressive.
-
I am not sure they will put that much into the development. I think the big push for them is GE and the modeling aspects of SU are secondary.
-
I suppose people are just affraid that the GE side of SU is going to be developed with more abandon than the core of the program. Understandable really, what with most of the regulars on this forum being the people who use the modelling tools as opposed to the more GE type stuff.
-
Just a reminder. Layout starts from @last. Until yet theres no real progress ( beta ) and no stated aim.
-
Coen, excellent and interesting newsletter. Thanks for your hard work.
I can't help thinking the fears about GE are overblown.

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...
He, he... Bullseye...
@frederik said:
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...And it sure was...!!
Very well done, Coen..!!
So far I've only seen one minor mistake in the CatchUp Newsletter...

Fletch is the author of a plug-in for SketchUp which has taken the community by storm: LightUp, a new way for SketchUp users to display their models with real lighting and effects right inside SketchUp.Guess that the final pages was rushed through...
(Or maybe the gremlins have been at work...
