As follows:
“Hello,
Thank you for your support and feedbacks. Everyone here at Devialet is very excited with this Expert Pro revolution and we want to share this journey with you.
Qobuz and Tidal will not be part of this initial software release but they are in our roadmap for the coming months, along with web radios, Bluetooth and more.
Your Expert Pro will feature AirPlay 2 in the future. Devialet has been highlighted by Apple at the WWDC as a partner for AirPlay 2 integration, but specifications are not final yet. We will, of course, need to implement and test Apple’s new protocol before making it available to your Expert Pro.
Our bit-perfect proprietary protocol AIR will be available in the Nov. 7th release.
And for those of you who use and love the “Roon + Expert Pro” integration, as I do, it will keep on working, only better.
We have more up our sleeves, stay tuned!”
At last some (fairly) meaningful communication .

What intrigues me is Olivier's last sentence: "We have more up our sleeves, stay tuned!"
This reminds me of what Guillaume wrote somewhere ages ago when the streamer board was first announced. He was told that Devialet were going to come up with something "very special". So far, the announcements made are just a tad too ordinary to be called 'very special'. Knowing what Devialet are capable off and how they have always surprised us with stuff we didn't even know we wanted I'm exited about the next few months.
