Helix 3.8 when?

Does DI have to remote in from his vacation to make the firmware announcement posts?

That is the least he can do

He probably has everything already typed out and ready to go out automatically as soon as the date/time of the update is released.

Some real 007 shit going on here

Nope they have to call his cell
Then he has to Uber to the nearest Staples , scan the release notes and fax them back

Are you on some sort of product placement contract? Should he grab a Pepsi and feel the pulse, ride the wave while he’s at it?

Was hoping for Tuesday (still could) release so they have time to push out a fix if needed before the weekend.

I have to admit the whole surprise update thing used to be fun but considering this seems like it's going to be a modest (and maybe underwhelming considering what other companies are doing) update it's starting to get a little annoying.

I just imagine DI telling his Japanese boss... "we have a pending release, which is unfinished, but I'm still going on vacation!

It's new stuff for your device that you don't have to do anything to get apart from wait a little bit.

Why is that annoying?

And so he should.

Because it just seems like it's trying to be too cute at this point. I appreciate the fact that the same device has been updated 60 whatever times since it was released but if they're going to trickle out small updates then why not just announce the date?

Who's trying to be cute? Line 6? the 61 page speculation thread isn't of their making and was literally started the day 3.7 came out. Blame us forum posters if anything, not L6

Felt Cute; Might Release FirmwareTM

I feel a strong urge to listen to Rick Astley and share it with you.

According to DI they won't know the date until it's finalised. Also if they do release a date and push it back because a new bug pops up they'll be inundated with people crying about it like it's the end of the world.

He can’t get to Staples till after 4pm island time

Except is it really a surprise to anyone ?
