Lets get a client out before feature creep kills us.

I would like to propose all this talk of what the client could do in addition to the Opt-Out be stopped. We have a really bad case of feature creep starting that would delay the original client for months or more.

Lets get the original working client out first as it was first proposed. After that since the client is open we could create addons for the client, maybe listing "Approved" addons that the code has been reviewed by us. This would allow third parties to write add-ons that maybe we would never have imagined, tieing the client to other anti-spam technologies by other groups.

As long as our client is open and we publish any APIs needed this would be an easy way for us to put our effort into the client first and the extras second. This would give users the option of choosing what extra features they want without delaying the time to market of the client.

Maybe if a feature becomes really popoular we could add it in a later revision.

Totally agreed

Client is first.
Then the extras will come by themselves.
It's better not delaying the client more than needed.
Spammers know about us and are preparing to fight us back.
Let's not give them time.

Dear God, YES!!! The sooner

Thanks folks. Those of us who are NOT programmers definitely appreciate all the work by those of you whom are.
