I was thinking along the lines of figuring all that out and then enslaving the Lightwave team to help Jim finish it by the end of the year... 4 hours for the first part? Sure, I don't know... 3 months to finish after that? I'm inclined to think not.
Not that I'm upset about it or anything, he can take all the time he needs. This is where his policy of no release dates is great, you can't have a delay if you don't set a date.
