I agree.  I'm sure that like any other company they value cash now 
over cash in the future, and are frustrated that they can't give a 
date yet.

I can't see that keeping OOP back will generate revenue from the 
eralier works; publishing it will, as we saw with GOF - many of us 
here only noticed HP when it came out.

I also agree she has no obligation to us.
