> Sadly I had to pull the alpha since it’s now all over twitter w/o proper introductionary text, hotfixes, etc. ( http://lists.macromates.com/textmate-dev/2011-December/01465... ) Maybe something to do with the IMPOSSIBLE TO MISS REQUEST TO NOT RE-PUBLISH THE ALPHA INFORMATION that people can't seem to comprehend.
As if there was a chance in hell it wouldn't get republished...

The Sublime2 dev builds have slowed as of late so I was wondering if the author was prepping for final release to steal TM2's thunder.
Now i'm using chocolatapp, which seems to be moving along briskly and now has a better feature set.
PLEASE DO NOT REPUBLISH THIS INFORMATION! .. is probably the best thing to write if you want something to get republished ;-) Nonetheless, all of the reports I'm seeing on Twitter are resoundingly positive so far, albeit with a few complaints over the icon (but what's new there?)
No split windows yet... still hoping.

After playing with TM2 for half an hour or so, I don't think I'll be switching back from Vim. I was hoping for some split-screen action and maybe some advanced autocomplete intergration, but it doesn't seem to have either. It's looking to be a great update and improves on a lot of things in the existing version, but if I were honest, I'd have to say I wouldn't bother upgrading if it wasn't free. That said, it's obvio…
I don't have a license so I don't saw the alpha but it's seems frustrating that in 5 years of "development" so little was added. But, OTOH, it's not the final version.
That doesn't change much.
Either it will be released soon, so not much will be added in the final version,
or
we wait for more stuff to be added before it's released in another 2-5 years, making it totally pointless as of now.
(And given that it's not like the previous 5 years were well spent, we already know how this will go...)

For what's it worth, this was posted on a publicly accessible TextMate mailing list. Not sure why he would think it wouldn't leak out.

I was wondering similarly: Dev work on ST2 seems to have stopped altogether. Which is a pity, because it really was shaping up to be a winner. But there are still plenty of features missing. Now i'm using chocolatapp, which seems to be moving along briskly and now has a better feature set.
Yeah, no new beta release for a whole of 40 days!
"""Now i'm using chocolatapp, which seems to be moving along briskly and now has a better feature set."""
The only reason it "moves along briskly" is because it started with very little. And better than ST2? Currently is somewhere south of TextMate 1.x
