As far as we know its all happy. The problem that rubs some the wrong way though is everything right now is that she is mostly hearsay and some fans want solid proof of product. The devs have showed a lot of sloppiness, even at their start... They went about announcing her as a vocaloid before they had the right to do that which really peeved off fans like myself who had high hopes. Though my hopes were attached to Nana French... :-/

I think everyone who isn't on board with Alys is just fed up and wants something solid at this point. Trouble is it makes up skeptical and impatient. We're not used to this level of sloppiness. We've had some bad ones, SBS and SeeU English, PowerFX and Vocaloid4 dropping, Zero-G putting emphasis on how you can edit a vocal to make it sing other languages and having it promptly thrown back at them. I think the devs for Alys have been the worst so far, not including any potential badly handled UTAU because I've found UTAU has a certain degree of drama in its fandom that can see whole vocal disappear because someone said the results were LQ...

It just once you say your making a proper product, you have to express *some*professionalism... And this is something the devs lacked from the beginning... And everything was a mess. Honestly, I'm more surprised the project is alive at this point when by rights a lot of people should have lost interest by now due to this fact alone. But it seems a lot of folks still on board either have a high tolerance level, either that or their ignorant/naive and see the whole thing through rose coloured glasses. And with so many still believing that she is Vocaloid, the latter seems more likely.

Its not that I'm putting the group down, its just that they've got so much to learn even at this point that I'm waiting for them to polish up their act and stop acting like this. I the sort of person who scolds CFM for saying English vocals are for Japanese producers to break into the west, or Cyber Diva's devs for throwing the blame onto the studios for a fault that was basically Yamaha's own doing. And lets not talk about SBS and whats gone down with seeU that could have been better for both company and vocaloid. =_=
