Yeah, I realized I might have misinterpretted you a little bit -- I made it seem like we did not have the same urgency about improving the network as we did before.

This is definitely not at all true. We will just probably not be introducing any really major changes with our next release, although it's hard to imagine anything quite as major as the UltraPeer change. So, basically, the next major release will have a bunch of nice little changes (automated re-querying, for example), but it probably will not have HUGE. This is because it takes considerable time to implement and it probably won't be ready, but we also would like to make sure that the first major changes (UltraPeers, swarmed downloading) are working as close to perfectly as possible before putting something else on our plate. We basically just don't want to end up with a bunch of pretty good implementations of a bunch of really cool features. We'd rather have two really cool features implemented really well before adding another really cool feature with a first-generation implementation.

Ultimately, though, we're trying to get as high quaility a product as possible out to you guys as quickly as possible.
