Oh, they were planned a long while ago, but because of the time we spend bug fixing and other duties we had not enough
man power to implement them until now. QB is now feature complete (which it should already be with the first GA). So we
can now entirely focus on bug fixing (when it comes to QB).

Excellent, Mark. Thank you. Only the bugs that are reported are likely to be fixed. You know the developer never tests
as hard as the normal user :-)

I'm sorry, but until only three weeks ago QB *was* a beta product and marked as such. The GA of course should be more
stable and we are working hard to remove as many problems as we can.

Perhaps I should also mention (and be it only as a short note), this is still all open source. You get it for free.
However, this should not keep you from giving us help to find the flaws.

Again, thank you Mark.
