Up until the launch of the Pi, I thought the communication from the Foundation was brilliant. First class and an example to other similar projects.
However, since the launch day, there seems to have been a deafening roar of....silence.
I can appreciate that things can (and have) go wrong and I think most people can live with that, as long as they are kept informed. It is a game changing product and every project like this is going to hit snags.
What I can't seem to understand is the fact that at the moment, there is very little information coming from the Foundation, and I think this may even extend to keeping Farnell informed. I know that they will say there are no updates, first 10,000 is still be fixed etc, but even this is an update of a kind.
I also find it hard to believe that there isn't more granular information available, appreciating that the Foundation and / or Farnell can't be 100% open for business reasons. I think the lack of hard, official communication from the Foundation is leading to a lot of unnecessary but justified annoyance on the part of us, the customer and also a lot speculation based on half truths, but this is going to happen (to my mind) to fill the vacuum left by the official sources ?
So, is it just me ?
