eg:
Item | Status
wifi + BT module | in stock since xx-Dec-2015, shipping
Acrylic case | in stock since 19 Mar 2016, currently deploying for early bird backers
LCD screen | Pending stock arrival
Something like that on a page, short, sweet and clear.
That should help to set backer expectations. And the list won't have to be constantly updated, only when necessary.
Good suggestion, once clear up some immediate tasks on next two days, I will do that.
BTW, the Pine A64+ 1GB March pledge just started shipped out today and will sort out with KS team to clear up early some bird batch dispatch list on the items that already in stock such as acrylic case, power supply, PoE splitter, and etc,
I am very supportive of this project. I think this suggestion would help ease many minds as when email responses are very generic at best and still does not address the question, then this list could be the place for this information. But as a backer it is a bit disturbing on the shipping method no matter how you slice it up. On the KS comments there is someone who states they are an April backer who got their board. But a full list of what is in stock and estimated delivery dates sure would be nice for reference and then maybe there would be an overall ball park idea when you might be shipping.
As a backer of many projects when the backerkit is locked for good there is an understanding that it should be shipping soon and not soonTM.
