I has just seen this page fr om the Blender Software

Blender Software development news

This is an example of what I want to suggest, it can be seen from the Blender Software that they have a small blog page wh ere they put in progress projects and possible targets to accomplish and that is what they are working on now, and also notes about what features has been already chosen to be developed later, and there is no release date.

I want to make a suggestion to have in the forum or somewhere in the website a place to put news and comments about " in progress" developments and projects that the FF team are working on, so we could know in what features they are working on and what can we expect in the future. And want to make clear that this is only a suggestion and not forcing anyone to do it.

I have no intention that FF Inc. leaks information or give secret information, just only and simply tell about what the FF developers are working on in each moment of the year, and what could be possibly working in the near future

Until now the only source of news is to see the Feature wishlist wiki and see what features are already confirmed, but the problem with this is that there very few, until now only 3 of them, because this list is NOT done by the FF Team, is done thanks mostly to the great and kind work of Crapadilla as seen in this features already requested thread. ,maybe the Unofficial list could become official and be made by Filter Forge team.

Of course all this would be without any deadline, without giving any release date, and even it may be not released at all if the project does not go as expected and then can not be included in FF for any reasons

This way would give news and information of the evolution of FF and what to expect for the future and this would be good for the confidence of the company and could give perhaps more sales knowing what may happen in the future

Of course that I would not tell in any way to FF Inc. how to run and manage their business, but from my own point of view, keeping everything tightly secret., and keeping many months without knowing nothing on what they are working on, and only releases any information when it is finally done, I think is not the best thing.

This would also help to know what features from the wishlist has been considered and are working on, and so there would not be needed to keep requesting for them.

Ugh. Just no. Quit quoting what I write. smile:cry: I was merely putting down some observations I've had and my thoughts about it. In any situation, my writing shouldn't endorse suggestions. I just have thoughts and I'm simply frank about them. I'm far from interested in steering any direction of anything here. And I'm on this forum because for the love of art and the program and the quality of it all. And as much as I end up in those kinds of discussions, I swear, I really don't intend any further involvement than some opinions I have.

And likely my presence lately concerns myself! Sometimes, it's just difficult sitting on ideals. And I say a lot. I have a lot of things in my head!! smile;)
