Through out the postings, there are remarks about future enhancements. I'm sure that the lists grows and shrinks (or does it really ever shrink?); it would be of interest to see what future features on the top of the list of most likely to come out and broad timetables (such as future releases by quarter or even future years).

As a matter of policy we don't talk a whole lot about schedules for specific features. The futures list is pretty dynamic most of the time and much of the low hanging fruit has been picked which means that new futures work will be substantially larger in scope and take longer to roll out. It also means that the futures work will, relatively speaking, be more expensive since time = money in this case so funding is something we have to take into consideration when we're planning new work. There are ongoing tweaks to economic data, e.g., I've just received the 2008 series numbers so I have to make a pass at the various monte carlo internal numbers sometime soon, and I'm doing a lot of internal clean up at the moment looking to some potential futures work that I'm not prepared to talk about now. There are also some things we've had staged for a while but haven't implemented due to resource issues (small company, too many things to do, too few people) which have finally bubbled up to the top of the pile and should be out "real soon now".
Not an answer I know, but its the best that can be done at the time.
Best,

Is the project that will allow users to enter fund tickers as a supplement to the canned securities on hold or moving forward? I do understand you guys are busy and have limited resources. We certainly appreciate your brilliant work.

Kelvin,
I'm out of the loop on that one, but from what I've heard in from Larry, yes, it's still progressing. I don't know how far it's gone though.
Best,
