They have a spec and just a matter of editing some hivemind stuff. We should keep them on task. But in this case it's not like we have to do a hard fork for it (that i know of) AND the biggest piece is that they can enable the background stuff and other interfaces can make the UI happen right away even if that part takes them more time.
Will it come quickly... i hope so but not counting on it. It has been a long time to get to this point.
