I expected this thread, lol.
Realistically, I don't think news on their progress should revolve around an event like EVE Vegas. I'd be unhappy if it did. I expect them to just be more interactive with the community in general, here on the Internet, all the time.

Can you... expand on that a bit, perhaps?
I can expand on my thoughts:
I'd rather Legion was talked about more openly here on the forums, rather than being held for events for marketing purposes. Obviously I'm not happy with the current level of interaction there, but I'm, if anything, glad people aren't being kept in the dark just to save stuff for a convention.

I doubt CCP Rouge has time to do our podcast, to be honest.
I wouldn't say devs are ignoring us. We have a pretty good dialogue with certain devs, others could perhaps be better. But they have in many cases, particular reasons for doing or not doing things, or timelines. And in a lot of cases, other factors from other parts of the company can come into play, like marketing. (I have a standing point that being really really open with your playerbase tends to be great for marketing, but I digress.) And I think CCP has learned it's lesson about promising things ahead of time, they're cautious now about saying things that might not be true later.
I think one of the strongest components in convincing CCP to be more open, is seeing the response and reaction to how existing open dialogue has worked. For instance, the good reception to CCP Rattati and CCP Logibro's work on hotfixes. It's a case-in-point proof that open development works for CCP really well when they do it.
But it's a cultural thing. It takes a lot of time, and a lot of changed minds to evolve the way people communicate. We just continue to push the process from our end.

Bear in mind that EVE Vegas isn't really a primary venue for CCP. They are directly involved in it, but it's still a partially player-run thing as well. It's never been the place for big announcements. I wouldn't take any info or lack thereof from Vegas as a serious sign.
But I also badly want to see more updates from the Legion team on the forums. Even if it's a "Yup, still here" on occasion. CCP Rattati, of course, was known for just chilling with players long before he had a public-facing role, and I wish more devs did that.
