I don't announce release dates and feature lists. This is mainly because Orbiter is a hobby of mine, and I don't need the pressure of working against a deadline or fixed specification. I can't always predict how much time I can spend on Orbiter, so the interval between releases will vary. The features added in a new version are usually a mixture of my own ideas and user requests.
Occasionally screen shots of the upcoming version will be posted on the Gallery page, just to keep the suspense up.
