Myths and Legends 101:
One of the most enduring myths is that since the beginning of time, a new version of OOTP has been released every 1st of March since the discovery of the New World in the sixteenth century. Actually, there's only been one March release, so why everyone is getting their knickers in a twist or presuming a March release is, to be honest, a loon.
Presumably a perfectly nice loon, just trying to speed up the process a bit, but still, prefixing a post about moaning before moaning (for example, 'I'm not mad' vs. 'I hate everyone...I'm not buying it because I've been robbed of a month by this delay...pre-order is a scam to delay the project that isn't even late'), and why particularly anyone might want to hear it, is not the way to garner sympathy.
I'm all for targeted posts that discuss why and how the process can be improved, and the sentiment of the first part of the post is nice. But if this post isn't a rant like the ones that you hate, why are you posting? Send an email if you don't want anyone to respond.
Again, not a flame - but I don't see how this post helps us get towards a policy we in the community or OOTP could consider (a fixed release date set beyond completion, or rolling weekly updates etc.)
