We helped drive the BigTIFF effort, we helped with technical issues, we contributed continuously, and said we supported the design/effort. Are you expecting a SuperBowl ad and press release?
Until the code is tested and bugs ironed out, I can't even update our documentation to include BigTIFF. (which has also made it difficult to get product managers to approve time to work on the effort)
A SuperBowl ad is irrelevant and absurd.
A press release or other formal public statement, on the other hand, would be reasonable.
I find it a bit odd that you seem to regard the two as comparable.
