    And they will continue to change that..

    So far, IIRC Firaxis has not announced a release date.
    Infogrames has, but that could have been for marketing purposes...

      Hehe, Firaxis doesn't get to make a release date, infogames gives them one and that's when they have to release it. That's generally how it works with publishers. maybe firaxis would get more say in this case, though.

        Since the
        release version of Alpha Centauri was still in final testing, and our
        actual ship date was more than a month away, we had time to
        incorporate many suggestions from e-mail and Internet
        newsgroups into the retail version - much to the game's
        benefit.

        Thanks to the demo release, we could make improvements to the
        game's interface, add a couple of new features, and fix a few
        glitches found by demo users that had somehow slipped through
        our testing process. Most significantly, the design of the game
        itself was still "in play" during the demo process - we could
        improve some rules, fine-tune the game balance, and
        improve the AI, all based on feedback we got from the
        Internet.
        could somebody give some examples of this?

          Mark G ...........

          Since it's gone beta, wouldn't that put a demo release in order very soon?

          BTW, thanks for the job you're doing, you do it well.

            The word has shifted from "Fall 2001" to "October"! Hope!
