Anyone know when Inform 7 becomes available to the community?

There has been no public, or even private, mention of a release date.

I'm still thinking about what to put in this space.

"Anyone"? Sure -- Graham Nelson. He would presumably have announced
something if he'd wanted to; since he hasn't, it would prolly be a good
idea to be patient and not bother the man...

Now, now. Nothing wrong with asking questions on a public forum.

The fact that the cat is out of the proverbial bag probably has sent
Graham into a vortex of extreme discomfort.

As impatient as I am, I will say that we should just relax, take a deep
breath, and put a towel over our heads. This will make Graham think we
don't know and relieve any previously perceived stress.

Ouch! That hurt! But I guess I should be happy that I still have a cat,
all things considered... I'll proceed with putting towel on head, and
recieve the added bonus of being protected from the Ravenous Bugblatter
Beast of Traal.

Obviously, as long as you don't worry about which year...

I know it's early to ask, but does anyone know what
the major differences are between v6.3 and v7.0?

Someone asked this on the newsgroup a month ago. To quote myself:

Since the system has not yet been finalized, it wouldn't really be
appropriate for us to start trumpeting it yet.

Graham will announce it when it's done.

Any plans for an Inform 7 Mailing List?
