Sounds to me that 6.1 is no different than 6.0. More
eyewash on the horizon!

The question I think most people have been asking is what
technical/application problems have been addressed (or
will be addressed) with this version of MSM. It seems
more time is being spent to explain the features (eye-wash
in my opinion) and cool extras. Most people just want
messenger to work efficiently instead of not getting
bloated with features that only slow down the application,
take up valuable bandwidth and hard drive/memory space.
Microsoft (or developers of MSM) should put out a survey
to its users and ask what people actually use/need in this
application (in my world we call it software
requirements). I guess the bottom line is that we can't
complain because it's free.
just my two cents.
