Assuming that
1 the 2.0 preview launches in the next few days
2 John decides to make some noise when the 2.0 preview does launch
What do Y'all think about having a party on Friday to celebrate the launch??
(or should the party wait until 2.0 goes GOLD?)

It's a really bad idea to plan a party based on the release of the platform.
I remember my last "Hooray I won the Lottery!" party that I planned before the drawing occurred. It was not a fun party.
I made this half-pony, half-monkey monster to please you.
I agree that it's a bad idea to plan a party.
Judging by the amount of times the release is on then off there is a very good chance the sausage rolls might go off.
AFAIK John doesn't like to release things on Friday.
Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many bridges you can burn
Too many tables you can't turn
Don't wanna live my life in the real world
Or any other day as far as the platform is concerned.
I read somewhere that John follows valve time
your friendly neighbourhood moderator Zach Thibeau
At least it's better than the development cycle of Duke Nukem Forever.

Vintage!
The valve time is a confirmed thing. The "any other day" is just a cheap shot.
I've spoken with him on IRC and IIRC he doesn't like Friday releases.

Odd that IRC and IIRC are totally unrelated acronyms. /off-topic
I am not my signature.
Leaving aside the grumbling kvetching about the release dates... blah blah, you aren't saying anything new...
I think we should START planning a party once 2.0 final is released.
Since we have users all over the world, we could set up Meetups, and maybe even some videoconferencing or Skype to tie them together. It would be a lot of work to arrange, but it could be fun.

Or how about we just use the -ot room on IRC?
Bet your glad you didn't organize that party now.
