I came to the Dolphin world in the midst of September last year and thought of making a site based on 6.1.4. Paid couple of hundred bucks(~500 USD) to buy some mods and it took me 3-4 months to make up the site and then I thought I should purchase the Dolphin licenses and go live....
Then came the post from Boonex about Dolphin 7 release in a couple of weeks. I thought whether it would be worth the hassle to launch a 6.1.4 based site and then upgrade it to 7 or just wait a couple of weeks. But see more instead of weeks, months are passing by and my site is in suspended mode. I am still confused and wondering whether the existing mods I bought would work with Dolphin 7 or not. When I read something like this from boonex - "complete layout change ... blah blah blah"...it makes me feel both excited and nervous.
I have couple of other sites based on VBulletin and Joomla and so I am not new to this opensource thing but I would have to say the initial impression I got off Dolphin in last september has started to fade away and the only thing that still keeps me floating here is the amount of money I have invested in this and my strong belief that my Dolphin. based site would be a real good one.
I keep my fingers crossed and would keep waiting indefinately ( as boonex said the wait could be couple of weeks or months).
