Shirley, I think you're mistaking Fullwrite 1.1 and Fullwrite 2.0. FWP 1.1 is a maintenance release that cleans up some bugs and fixes some crashing problems using the outlining. It doesn't add any new functionality and it doesn't deal with the memory or performance aspects. FWP 2.0 is a major rewrite of lots of the internals to fix the memory and performance problems as well as adding a bunch of stuff. From what I've heard, 1.1 has gone golden (or soon will). 2.0 is out a ways, and they're working hard at getting it done. The move from AAS to A-T and the relocation of the staff to the Bay Area (first to temporary quarters, then to a permanent building) hurt the development cycle. Now everyone's settled in and things should be moving forward....
