Yes, I agree. The Umbra, the Beast integration, the new tree editor, the asset shop, the Union publishing concept. It is growing so fast. And next release is told to have a procedural texture generator (the same that has been integrated into Max and Maya recently). A user made a graphical node based shader editor. It is really more than amazing to see how fast it grows.

I also agree with your opinion about this nonsense personal discussion. Some personal messages would be better in this case. I appreciate all of these people. Ratchet sometimes exaggerates a bit but it is not all nonsense what he writes. And I like how he replies with humour instead of getting angry.
