In your words .. they shouldn't sleep, not spend time with family. Not work during business hours, but 24/7/365, just so you don't have to wait another month? .. #wow
I rather that they take the time off, have the freedom to play around with features, and be innovating. I rather see them clear the mind by sleeping long enough and spending the weekends with the family. So they have a fresh view on what they're doing and don't get lost in it. It's important to go to events like ForumCon, it's good for their business and their customers. It drives sales, word of mouth, potential business deals, and motivate them to produce a better product.
If you want rushed development with no innovation, burst-coding batches, get a vbulletin 4 license.
