While not really as frustrated as the OP, I think he does have a point. I mean the EE team said back in February that EE 2.0 is in some kind of working format, they have been running betas, and presumably this would mean that most (if not all) issues with the underlying framework (CodeIgniter) would have been hammered out by now. I love CI, and use it pretty much exclusively for most of my projects, I've been waiting excitedly for a while now to see all of the upgrades and features that will be rolled out with CI as the base for EE. Anyways, I think there is at least a moderate level of frustration among some of us with the lack of updates or even just news about updates around here.
