I work at a job where something similar happened. People are hell bent on making changes, instead of making GOOD changes that are tested and shown to be working correctly. Been working for five months at my job now fixing a continual series of F ups from the lack of a beta test on a system switch and probably be working several months into 2015 before things are fixed.
It's a shame. I wouldn't bet against a relaunch in 2015, but the guy's note to everyone on Twitter sounded like he's totally burnt out. But downtime and itchy fingers and a new tennis season, ya know ...
