Entire projects much more complex than this have finished in a fraction of the time. If they can’t get this PCB manufacturer working, they need to drop the manufacturer, eat the loss, and apologize for the delay. It is not this hard to create and design a PCB and all we have been getting for the past year+ have been trite excuse after excuse with no accountability or transparency.
The communication and handling of this GB has been atrocious. I don’t care how many projects ZFrontier has taken on, or how it’s difficult for them to handle so much on their plate. That’s a problem of their own creation. Is it really so hard to provide even a basic (read: existent) level of accountability, responsibility, and communication?
It has been months since I have received any email or update about this project. The website is updated once every few months with a random PCB-related excuse. Come on, guys. Get it together.
It’s not the first time the community has pointed this out to them. It’s not the first time they’ve apologized. Apologies are completely and utterly meaningless if you don’t actually do anything about them.
