Whilst I understand what you're saying, there are some very specific things they could comment on but have refused to so far. In these cases it's VERY MUCH the lack of answers which is worrying people. Ashley used a lot of words to say very little yesterday when he could easily have addressed the following:
Is XF still being actively developed?
Is Mike still involved in developing XF?
How much (if any) progress has been made since Ashley's last statement that XF was being actively developed.
These should be easy to answer questions which I thought was the point of this thread. For example, I hope they're not uncertain where Mike is still working for XF or not?
Even if the answers are "bad" news, surely XF is at a stage where it needs to be honest with it's supporters if it expects their continued support.
