Believe me I've argued that point constantly, I keep being told we're not advertising until after the "next patch". We've had about 20 patches since then, but it's still waiting for the mythical "next patch". *shrug*
I'm not sure what is going on now or before I worked on TSR, but while I was working on TSR, I told everyone that it was to wait until 2.x. I'm not sure if that is still the case though.
