There were some very cool modules that had been in the development stage such as the Chos module that have now been abandoned. Many long term users would dearly love and update to the A-126 but it has now been postponed for what seems an eternity. Also the promised update to the A-157 to allow for ratcheting seems to be delayed. I agree an update to teh website is really needed, so that customers can see what updates are in progress and which to stop asking about.

There were some very cool modules that had been in the development stage such as the Chos module that have now been abandoned. Many long term users would dearly love and update to the A-126 but it has now been postponed for what seems an eternity. Also the promised update to the A-157 to allow for ratcheting seems to be delayed. I agree an update to teh website is really needed, so that customers can see what updates are in progress and which to stop asking about.
