"When it's done" is better than "October 3rd of this year". Setting goals in a timeframe is good and bad. The good is that people work hard to meet this goal, the bad is people work hard to meet this goal. What ends up happening is that the code is sloppy (read: buggy) and/or missing key features.
While there should be time frames to complete projects, they should also be tentative in case it doesn't happen or changes/additions need to be made.
Oh, and I'm not a student in computer science. I just understand how projects work.

I'm teacher in computer science and i can tell you that time in software development in real life enviroment is still mystery to me. (It is said, when you get a task to program, try to estimate time you think you will finish in, then multiply it by 3 and you will get the lovest time boundary  )
hahahaha wow

Zero v Effort?
So basically between MSL/OSL/Blizzcon we are having every top zerg in the world play in a ZvZ.
(Calm, Kwanro, Jaedong, Effort, Zero, Savior (kinda))
Wonder what that says about both the MU and map pool (a lot obviously).

now they get beta keys for sure :D

Yeah, Blizzcon is serious business.

Then we'd have a Ralph Wiggum/Lisa Simpson moment. Heart breaks in two.
