While his whole argument is flawed, i can see this last one holding some form of truth.
Why was 2.0 announced in 2009? I mean back then you would have known it would have been atleast 5 or so years before you would release as much as a beta.
With 1.8 because of all the trouble of the past few months pushed back a lot. And slowly starting to become a major content update (because you just like the community sees MyBB will have to add things to keep up with competition).
It will be what september,oktober? before we see a beta. And maybe January next year a release of some sorts since i dont see you releasing it during the holiday season.
That would make it 2013, add two years to that we would be in 2015. Now lets presume for a moment that you would release a beta of some sorts of 2.0 in august of 2014 that would still make the total time since the first announcement to the earliest release about 6 years.
While i guess i can see why you did it, i still think it might not have been the best decision to share that type of information so early on. And would have been a better announcement around this time that after 1.8 2.0 would be released. Yes i know 1.8 was never in the planning untill recently but still 6 years is quite a lot of time. To much time for such an announcement if you ask me.
