Development time costs money, and AMD/ATI wouldn't be allocating developer-hours to completely re-work an underlying subsystem of their drivers just to realize no improvement on any front. What would be the point in that?
At the very least, one would have to expect that with these new drivers, a brighter path towards higher performance, more features, or less instability problems would emerge.

Another week passes...
In two weeks time it would have been 3 months ago when the slides were first mentioned . Every time I return to this page, I feel a bit more like a horse that's chasing a carrot which is being dangled in front
yet still very interested in seeing those slides. Not as much as the next driver release, but still pretty damn curious
I don't want to come of all mean and bitter, bit ironic though how a slideshow "the truth about our monthly development cycle" is taking 3 months

That is good news. However, I think this also demonstrates a truth about AMD/ATI's management and their decision-making policies.
How long ago did you first contact AMD/ATI, Michael? I imagine that this was sometime back in February? And now, only in the middle of May (5/18), do they finally get the final sign-off?
I really hope that this delay period was just an extreme case of nondecision/bureaucracy within AMD/ATI's management structure.
