I asked about this a few months back, and they said that they (Greg, John, etc) had their hands full with more-pressing stuf like Carbon Events and such. Given the few apps that are even using the Thread Mgr, it's understandable. Although I'd like to have preemptive threads and all, I can wait for a nice, integrated class. BTW, they said that the framework was originally intended to integrate preemptive threads, but things didn't turn out that way.
