This is why Sonar is so widely hated, or despised, or neglected,  in a nutshell.  



SONAR is not widely hated or despised. In fact people who are using the current version overwhelming love it. We have data to back that up. 



Not just you, actually. Take a look at the December MI SalesTrak data for DAWs if you want to elevate your mood 



I think it's human nature to some extent...  If one is unhappy with a thing, it's not possible for others to be happy with it, right?   
 
I was wondering though which one it is - hated or despised or neglected.   But if neglected has been ruled out I guess that leaves hated or despised.   And a nutshell.

Dear Bakers..
Please continue doing what you are doing, whatever you  are thinking best for the users of different horizons.
Putt all the features. Also please put a Alt-Ctrl-Shift-Right Click to pop up window stating the following:
 
I want this feature
I Don't want this feature
Hide this feature
Hide this feature permanently
Edit: Keep provision to bring back if hidden permanently
 
So users can decide on their own and this will certainly fix some of the arguments.
 
My little thought
Regards
Snehankur

I am being to think that the bakers should not announce what is coming in the next version.  Here we have four pages of discussion on something no one has even used yet.  Maybe this is another feature that I will seldom use or maybe I will use it all the time, I don't know as I haven't seen it yet.  Or maybe it will be like the start menu.  When it first came out I didn't work very well here so I didn't use it.  But now that they have fixed it I use it all of the time.
 
So I will hold my thoughts on this feature until I actually have it in my hands.

Normally the eZine is posted as a preview, but they couldn't do it this time because it contains info on an announcement that's embargoed until either Monday or Tuesday (I forget which). So I guess this was a "half a loaf is better than none" situation.
 
Or maybe it will be like the start menu.  When it first came out I didn't work very well here so I didn't use it.  But now that they have fixed it I use it all of the time.

 
I agree about the Start Screen.
 
So I will hold my thoughts on this feature until I actually have it in my hands.

 
I see you're new to this internet thing

I think the announcement of upcoming features in the Rolling Updates section is fine, because it doesn't provide much information (i.e. it's exciting, because we can use our imagination and expect a lot from the features). But I'm against the sneak preview and the thread announcing its release, because it's not beneficial to us at all. We'll be using the feature in a week or so anyway. We probably only wasted our time.

Well, been here since CWPA 6 and I like it-I use midi everyday and this will be useful for me. 
 
I still think we need a "LIKE" button. Some posts here I "liked"  :-)

It gives us the opportunity to point out potential pitfalls before they get baked in.

You could use the HELPFUL button.

Not really, based on past experience previews precede the release by a few days to a week or so. By the time it's previewed it's already frozen.
