Some people are in fact using it now. You just had to snag an invite. Beta software can gain features.

Even so, isn't it only for OSX?

Windows and Linux packages are on the way, according to the devs.

Yes, which is why I'm not yet able to try out my own copy :/

Having painfully hacked together a few packages for ST (and TM) over the years, I'm impressed at how fast they pulled this together. If it's this easy to extend, Atom could have a very bright future.

Not that fast:

> But seriously, I've gotten to watch the development of Atom over the last two years and am soooo excited to see this baby ship.

I think he literally meant the speed at which the package was created for Atom Steve ;)

Very cool! This has been, in my experience, a factor limiting the use of GUI editors in places with a heavy emphasis on remote pairing. Of course not everyone does this, but if you work someplace that does, this is a big selling point. I'm excited about this!

Oh, yeah, maybe that. :)

Language is hard. :( I read it as "Wow, Atom is really extensible-friendly, even though they've only been making it a short while."
