Direct e-mail content from BK to me when I e-mailed him asking;
I apologize for the delayed response-between the holiday and the book release I was swamped.
The latest update is that Julian and the other dev continue to work on the switch, they ran into a few problems but know how to fix it.
I got this update 7 days ago.
I don't know how much more work has been done since.
Thanks, thats awesome.
