I find it really annoying to renew my subscription for a product that 
barely works, is largely undocumented, is full of holes (i.e. "that 
doesn't quite work yet, sorry for the inconvenience").

Of course it's a DP, so I am totally comfortable with bugs and reporting 
them - but looking at two of its biggest features, I see

  - AI : promising, but a long way to go

  - datastore : undocumented, and apparently still waiting for many more 
actions to be implemented

Also:

Dataviews - I don't even know what those are. I think there was a 
description somewhere, but I think it was on the old web site, and is 
(apparently) no longer viewable on the new site.

Tutorials : maybe on the old site ?  or very hidden.

Examples and samples : non-existent?

Templates : "coming soon"


Of course, having ranted, I'll pay the subscription because I need the 
"complementary LC 10" - but don't take my renewal to imply I am happy.

Alex.
