I have been waiting, hoping, checking and pulling my hair daily for all these days. I've asked people, searched for any signs of life, subscribed to the mailing list, but nobody seems to care.
It's a surreal experience. I would do it myself if I could, but I don't have the expertise. This is not laziness or whining. I simply have a set of skills different from this, and thus this is not "my task" in this world.
Could somebody offer any hope for me? Is anyone working on this at all? Why does it take so incredibly long? 2.4 has massive improvements. And no, I'm not going to switch to nginx or anything else, and compiling source code is not an option.
I'm going crazy over this.

I'm sure at one time in their lives everyone who has ever done anything, didn't have the experience they have now or needed at the time. 5 months is a long time to sit on your hands.
