Sure but I wasn't suggesting that you did care about it, it's just nice to get a heads up before something new arrives, even if not specific dates.
Specific dates aren't always helpful, as we have seen recently with channel launches delayed for technical reasons.

I'm quite a computer geek, so I'd like a channel such as .tv back on UK TV, or some further American imports such as G4 (games and technology) or Logo (aimed at the LGBT community), as I am not biased and we do not have a channel of its kind in the UK. Also, I fancy seeing the Weather Channel and Weather Channel HD in the UK, preferably exclusive to Virgin.

As far as I'm aware they operate on their own - each country has their own regulations and channel market.

I find the cooking channels half-baked, and wouldn't walk over you for the travel channels
