Hi,

Build 36 is two weeks old. When should we expect a new build.

Thank,
Oren

We're racing the Duke Nukem Forever developers.

Hopefully we'll have another preview before too long.  We're smoke testing new MP3 tagging code first.

Duke Nukem Forever is probably the most famous example of Vaporware.  Development on it supposedly started in April 1997, and no actual product has ever been released.  Wired Magazine has awarded 3D Realms (the "developers") their top Vaporware Award for a number of years running.  Recently it resurfaced as 3D Realms released some new video trailers of the supposed Duke Nukem Forever current builds back in December 2007.

DNF is effectively a long, long, long running joke in the Tech industry.  Makes other vaporware "developers" seem mild by comparison.

The name "Chinese Democracy" made sense when he came up with it back around the time of the Tiananmen Square, um, fun.  Not so much now.  Although with the olympics...

Isn't this the official site?
