None of us should really be too disappointed at this news, as we
all should have been expecting it, given the history of the band's
release dates.  But I must admit that even I gave in to optimism on
this particular occasion and dared to believe that this time it would
be different.  Alas...
 
Perhaps TVT ran into unforseen delays and opted to push back the release
date in order to insure a quality product (the "benefit of the doubt"
explanation).  Or perhaps their marketing geniuses decided that profit could
be maximized somehow by making us wait a few more weeks (the more likely
explanation).  I seem to remember the latter being revealed as the
reason for the several-months delay in the release of WFAD.
 
Oh well... maybe by August (again)...

P.S.  As a software developer, I DREAM of working for a company that
would dare to delay release of a product in order to enhance its
quality.  :)
