>you still need to spend another 6 months building out all the invisible things that make it actually releasable. That's why it's always advisable to have an actual release of the features at demo day, or in the case of exceptions, the next demo day. And if you don't have internal or external customers, at least released to a QA team that's user testing or building prototypes with it (if it's dev oriented). There should always be something early on demonstrating evidence that it's ok in production.
