Yeah, "By the end of the month" isn't exactly clear so I wanted some clarification. That could have been just a generalized time, an approximation. With the update maybe happening around the end of the month, give or take a couple weeks.
So thanks for a more clear date. I will assume the morning of the 30th everything will change.
I also assume that means the Raid Finder is coming to live regardless of all the flaws with the system.
Since Funcom is planning on launching some very basic and incomplete systems (Challenges, Raid Finder), I sincerely hope time in the next few months is actually spent to upgrade them to what they should have been instead of shelving them and ignoring them for the next decade.
