I'm sure Vassiks intention was what he had promised. Maybe he should have made a
clause to allow for any unforseen circumstances.
However, what did Rybka users want? Surely they wanted a Rybka which is really a
Rybka. Not some dissapointing thing which is released "on time".
 Do you mean, he should have released something disappointing, but with all the
works in it, and then made corrections later?
Or are you asking that the impossible should have been done, on time, and since
it wasn't, you want your money back? If so, did you ask?
(Or maybe you also want compensation for the trouble it takes you to ask it
back)?
