You are 100% right.
I want the best and most sound release possible. If it takes more time, so be it. To rush this thing out the door because some guy wants to make .1 btc on his .01 btc investment - please, stop wasting our time. Many in here are in for the long haul - we support and want a great and SOUND protocol.
OK freshman777 - and your qualifications are?
My qualifications are patience and understanding that cutting edge tech requires time and testing, more testing and some more testing. You lack these qualifications, from your posts. Go buy insured government bonds and treat yourself to 1% yearly risk-free profits.
While I agree there is a finite amount of 'time' in a project before a beta should be released. I would prefer a functioning beta asap over waiting further, especially if we are talking GUI improvements over core functionality/viability. The brightest minds out there echo that minimum viable product wins over polished final when it comes to release cycles.
And where did you see that this issue is trivial as GUI. This dilemma is absolutely core functionality related and irreversible.
The few voting no for technical reasons are welcomed. But the few that vote no because they want it out now to.... you know.. sell it?
Are foolish beyond words.
