Thanks for the brief update, nilbog.

I would just like to add my two cents to this discussion.

I work for a software development company. I can tell you this much, even with teams of developers working 50+ hours a week its very difficult to accurately set an estimate for release, and more often than not you ARE late. That is just the nature of software estimating. With that said I could only imagine how difficult it would be to make an estimate when you have **VOLUNTEERS** who all probably have a full time job, or class or something else going on in their lives to make any estimate on a project when you probably, at very best get 10-15 hours a week from a single developer. P1999 giving us an Estimate on when Kunark will be released with their current staff would only be setting the community up for disappointment, as I previously said with FULL time devs a project is rarely delivered on time. And we have no idea what kind of QA process the team has (and trust me QA is as important as development time if you want Kunark or any software to be released with ANY form of quality).

Just wait, it does not matter if it takes a week or 10 more months or whatever enjoy the server. If you want to help it come out faster take a systematic approach to testing the kunark server whenever it is up. It is probably hard to comprehend the scope of the task, yeah the creatures are made, and the zones are made, but itemization, quests, making it CLASSIC alone is a huge undertaking, and prone to bugs and errors galore.

Kunark will come out in good time, hopefully not rushed but when it's ready, and we will rejoice!

I just discovered this sever. Maybe when I'm level 50 with all my tradeskills maxed I'll join the chant for Kunark. Right now, I'm enjoying Classic!
