I respect your interest in making v2 a thing of beauty and functional <br>
integrity. It is a credit to you already.<br>
<br>
Please ship, so I don't have to keep downloading these time-limited <br>
betas. As far as I'm concerned, it's ready.<br>
<br>
As always, it's your decision.<br>
<br>
Respectful regards,<br>
