Vortec IRC, Revisited

This is my second blog post about Vortec IRC. It is without a doubt the best IRC chat client I have used. John continues to work on the beta. Every update brings improvement. I use Vortec every day and am more impressed with it now than ever.
I only have one real complaint with Vortec IRC. John is a perfectionist. He will implement changes and additions submitted by followers as well as Beta testers. It's rare when users can interact with the auther of an application like this. While this is a good thing, I find it also has a crippling affect on Vortec's distribution. I am extremely active on the web among technology "geeks". Because I am such a fan of Vortec IRC, I've posted comments about the application on a number of forums and social networks. The biggest comment I've received on it is in regard to many people not desiring to use an application that is still in Beta.
I feel the current Vortec IRC beta is more than stable enough for a full blown release. I urge John to take a week or two to clean up what he can on the application and do a full blown Version 1.0 release on it. No doubt little problems will arise. But I think they will be insignificant enough to be handled by routine updates.
