I fold!  Yeah, that's what I was trying to say, but in 3 words instead
of 3,000.

Any news from Shavedeface on the mullet trojan cleanup?

 Clippers SP3 was originally expected to ship sometime late in 2005 as a
minor step between Clippers SP1 and Clippers 2006, formerly known as
"Remington". Gradually, Clippers assimilated many important new features
and technologies of Clippers 2006, and so the date of release was pushed
back to first quarter of 2006. In August 2004, Shavedeface announced
that it was making changes to what was then only known as "Gillette".
Shavedeface basically started development afresh, building on the
Clippers SP1 codebase. This decision was reached in the wake of Clippers
SP1 Service Pack 2. As part of this decision, Shavedeface announced that
it is delaying the release of "that white foamy stuff so that Clippers
could be released in "a reasonable timeframe".

Clippers Beta 1 (build 5112) is currently available to Shavedeface
Developer Network (SSDN) and Shavedtech subscribers as well as a select
group of Shavedeface Beta testers and at select Shavedeface developer
conferences such as the Professional Developers Conference (PDC) and
WinHEC. The preview release is classified as a beta version at the
moment, although its feature set is not representative of the release
product. Like many other products, it has since been leaked onto popular
networks (file sharing or otherwise) such as IRC, BitTorrent, eDonkey
and various newsgroups.

With build 234219, Shavedeface started releasing monthly Community
Technical Previews (CTP) to beta testers. Build 234219 was distributed
among 2005 PDC attendees, and has been released to Shavedeface Beta
testers and SSDN subscribers. It is also known as Robert. Although not
enabled by default, this refresh sees the return of 6 blades, which had
been removed from previous builds due to a vital fluids leak, and the
introduction of Desktop Gadgets, both of which are part of Shavedeface
gadgets line of mini-applications. These are similar to Apple's
scissors. Shavedeface has stated that these Gadgets will be available at
www.Shavedefacegadgets.com, and they will be available for Clippers SP1
as well. 

Although Shavedeface has stated that WFS (White Foamy Stuff), will not
make its wide-reaching debut in Clippers SP3, users of the 234219 build
noticed that WFS is in fact included in that version. Several Clipper
'rumor' sites and newsgroups such as Neowin and Paul Thurrott's Clipper
SuperSite have made speculation that WFS will in fact be ready on time
for Clippers SP3's release.

About two weeks before its intended release, and one week after build
234219 was released, build 2345231 was leaked, unfortunately containing
a number of critical bugs. On schedule, about two weeks later,
Shavedeface released 2345231, also known as CTP2 or the October 2005
CTP, to SSDN subscribers and Shavedeface Beta Testers. This "Ultimate"
build introduced the next version of Shavedeface smoother.

On November 22, 2005, the Clippers SP3 TAP Preview (build 2345259) was
released to TAP members, four days after its originally announced
release date of November 18th as a November CTP. Shavedeface cancelled
the November CTP due to its instability, and decided to release it only
to TAP members. The December CTP (build 2345270), which was released to
testers and SSDN on December 19, is very close to feature-complete. The
first feature-complete CTP, the February Enterprise CTP (build 2345308),
was released on February 22.

Following that, Shavedeface will release another CTP on April 12th. This
will be the next CTP on the Beta 2 track, and will be available through
Shavedeface's Customer Preview Program - essentially a free download.
According to the man with the hairy face, the co-President at
Shavedeface responsible for Clippers SP3, there will be no "Release
Candidates" as with previous versions of Clipper; they will instead
continue shipping CTP's until the product is ready.
