Cole seemed to be helpful a while back, but he has now gone with the FHM strategy of hide when things go bad. He seems like a nice guy and we had a decent conversation via PM, but now that things have been delayed he's gone again.

I am not going with the strategy of "hide when things go bad" ...
I have already explained, there is a big, big reason why the patch isn't out already. I cannot mention anything further about this for the time being, but you'll just have to accept it. I know that answer isn't one that will satisfy you, but I can assure you I am not just blowing smoke, or trying to put people off. This is legitimate and equally legitimate is that I can't discuss it further presently. I hope that's soon not the case and you will understand.
And as for the reason why I didn't respond today earlier to these flurry of posts.. I was chasing around my toddler and trying to keep my two-month-old happy through the day ... I expected today to be an OOTP Developments day for me, but I was called in to Dad overtime when my wife unexpectedly had to spend the day at the hospital (she's alright though!).. So I wasn't around on the forums much today. And in the past couple days, as you can imagine, I was preparing things for release.
As is the case with there being more important priorities with OOTPD than this old patch, there are sometimes more important priorities that pop up in real life that don't allow me to respond as speedily as I typically do. As Brad mentioned, don't shoot the messenger and also please don't jump to conclusions about my intentions.
In the end I want to provide information for everyone as quickly and efficiently as possible, but a lot of the decisions aren't made by me.. So until I know something is 100% fact and I am allowed to share it, I don't want to share it, as it will simply add more fuel to the fire to those who get upset by various delays or problems.
As for when the patch will be out.. As you might be well aware, tomorrow is a big day for our company with the release of FHM 2. I would suggest checking back in on the forums tomorrow for more information.
