Special Forces 2 - Ever going to be finished?

I've been tinkering around with the Beta's of Special Forces 2 that are floating around, and I've been having fun with them despite some incompatability issues that prevents me from playing on a couple of the SF2 beta maps (I think I have a diff tagset build or something...)
And then it struck me (Like the fist of an angry god)
Why hasn't Special Forces 2 been released?
The units seem fairly balanced, I've only found 1-2 bugs/ glitches that should be easily squashable (Shotgun Captain picking up an item, and then being granted the airstrike ability, and units not responding towards enemies that are hacking them to pieces
)
So why hasn't it been officially released? What's holding it up?

Well I guess Im the only one that can answer that ..so Ill take a shot at it.
The truth of the matter is... it just isnt a finished product yet. In my eyes at least. Now..its not far from being done at all but there are a few things I need to finish to at least be able to upload something to the Tain. I apologize it has taken this long to complete and I hope when I finally do release it...the wait will have been worth it.
cheers

yah I dont know you either thats why I was wondering how you got my beta. Its really not a big deal that you have it and I should take it as a compliment I guess that other people have my betas that I dont even know. I am wondering though..what exact betas do you have? Would you like to test the latest if you dont have it? What this captain bug you are talking about?
let me know...please.

I found SF2_(072606)b , SF2_From ALL Sides (b1), SF2- Last Stop (b2)ff, and SF2UA__(072606)b,
I found them on the uDogs hotline, infact in the 1.5.1 section I believe(Could be wrong, and found them elsewhere, but I'm sure they're also in the 1.5.1 section).
I've never tried using the beta in Multiplayer, so I have no idea if half of those maps are Multiplayer, as the only one that worked solo was the Vietcong Assault map.
I have a sneaky feeling that they're fairly old, and that any of the bugs I've found, or imbalances are mainly due to the age.
Just for the record, I absolutely love the Special Forces plugin(s), and when I found out about it floating around from a PMyth denizen, I jumped at the chance to try it. Sorry for not asking you, I honestly didn't even know who made them. (Otherwise I would have sent a huge thank you PM)

I can genuinely see this being my all time favourite plugin. OZONE IS GOD.
