I found @dan’s reply to you very promising for delivery at least.
But you’re correct. There hasn’t been an official update for a while. Those do make it easier for anyone who doesn’t visit the forums regularly to be updated.
It just seems like every time they do an official update it chains @dan to the keyboard for a day or two. Personally would like him working on getting Glowforges shipped.
(Not to say that I don’t bug him enough with questions as it is.)
