Windows 7 has been making waves around the net for a while now, and we already know some of the more encompassing goals of Microsoft's next operating system release. It's going to be built on top of the foundations laid out by Vista and Server 2008, but it will not increase hardware requirements. There's going to be a multitouch framework, and a new mystery taskbar. That's more or less all we know. Microsoft also said they were going to be more tight-lipped during the development process, something they will continue to do, but they did open a blog today: Engineering Windows 7. The E7 blog is written by Jon DeVaan and Steven Sinofsky, two senior engineering managers for the Windows 7 product.

I assume it is easier and less time-consuming to write comments here than to deploy code which does really silly and quite exposing text replacements. Not to think about the preceding decision making process, or did you falsely skip that one?
I also assume that you, Thom, should listen more to the critics of your site, while they still dare to bother you with their criticism. In the end it should be in your very own serious interest to improve or sustian the quality of your website.
In the end it is you and your team that put most efforts into the success of this really great website. You don't want to waste these just by not handling it professionally, do you? I understand the discrepancy between the expectations your readers put into you/OS News and your attitude on it as a fun project. But these expectations should make you proud and caring instead of resisting. :-)
