SU7 is taking so long because...
-
Because AutoDesk bought it and no one is brave enough to tell us.
-
well, if autodesk sticks to the philosophy of easy interface and workflow in SketchUp, I won't complain - surely they would maximise the compartibility to 3Ds max and maya...
(sorry Google guys, I am like a dog: I am loyal to whoever feeds me
) -
Perhaps SketchUp doesn't fit in Google's 300 year plan to organize the world's knowledge..?
Randall Stross's new book, "Planet Google: One Company's Audacious Plan To Organize Everything We Know" doesn't even include the word "SketchUp" in the company's history of acquisitions or future plans. Kind of sad considering all the thgs that could be fixed, but good @Last got it as far as they did b4 the buyout...

I am inclined to believe that SU7 is not out yet because autodask were worried that Sketchup would be better than they were, and so they eradicated Google from the earth. Ther reason it all appears to work is because autodesk stole their servers first, and generated a massive hologram to make it look like their campusses are still there. Of course, the holograms were made in maya...
So, in short, google is now run by maya, and all work on sketchup has been lost- no sketchup 7 ever.

...because the Google Obamaites and McCainiacs are busy fighting each other (physically).
-
... they broke ruby. All ruby scripts will need to be re-coded from scratch. (Which of course means SU7 will have LESS functionality than SU6 with all those wonderful scripts.
-
...because they are reading the forums
to see who all the whiners and complainers
are so they can deny access to any future
Google products. -
Perhaps they are waiting for a ‘quot. impulsion’ from me!?

any time rumors arise like this one, there is usually a tiny bit of truth in them.

-
I am starting to get [flash=]excited[/flash]!!!

-
because I know somebody (who knows somebody else..and so on) who has gone to great lengths not to tell, but after probing a couple of times over the last 6months they saw proof that this person does now in fact have a copy of......sorry I'm not allowed to tell you (cause's its top secret..thats right) , and youll have to guess.
sssssshhhhhhhh.
-
Well, you let the cat out of the bag....I guess the only thing left is for the Google Goons to hunt you down and...it's too horrible to even think.
-
Gitmo dude, that's where the'll send you to.
-
But, ..I havent said anything..so nothing to be guilty off right?, or do you think Google will get the beta of me and disable my G browser.
(spot the key word)We still have to wait thou dont we and how long that will be is anyones guess!
-
Not long, now if fact the wait seems to be over !!
cant control my emotions, http://sketchup.google.com/gsu7/download.html -
Well, there we go.
Two questions tho.
-
did this thread speed up the release and therefore risk shortening of the testing process?
-
how long will it be before my IT dept get round to offering it to us lowly beings?

You are kidding, right?
There's a list of upgrades that people have requested on this forum that have been completely and utterly ignored by Google. You think they are going to rush the release of SU7 because of this thread while completely ignoring what they want?
