Gooch99: I would agree that May 2015 is later than I would have hoped but it still would be considered early 2015.
It's a given fact that you cannot predict complex projects reliably all the way down the road. The further your predictions go into the future, the larger uncertainty and unpredictability are. This is unavoidable and part of the overall risk. We should consider all predictions with this in mind, and this is what the "forward-looking" information or statements contained in each new release are about. Here's a quote (highlights by me):
Such forward-looking information or statements are based on a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions which may cause actual results or other expectations to differ materially from those anticipated and which may prove to be incorrect.
BTW, since yesterday I am a certified Professional Scrum Master, so you might take this as professional advice. ;-)
