Dear SAP,
The latest publicly available revision of Hana Studio (60) seems to have taken steps backwards from revision 56, which I used throughout the OpenSap course and proved stable.
My experience of revision 60 is disappointing - hanging, poor performance during straight-forward user operations, bugs resulting in loss of artefact decorators, inability to see catalog objects in SAP Hana Systems tab etc etc.
Other user experience is documented here:

As developers we are asked to commit to deadlines for support and project development delivery. We play a crucial role in proof of concepts, evangelising new technology to peers and those that hold the budget purse strings. I even resigned from my last job in order to dedicate months to self-learning Hana as I was excited by the technology and recognised the future possibilities and promise.
Right now with all the issues I'm struggling to progress my own project. Thankfully I do not have a client breathing down my neck (other than myself!), but now the experience is diluted somewhat and I'm a little concerned and disillusioned.
Please can we have a working Hana Studio so we can continue to learn, promote, demo and deliver in the most effective fashion - like all software it's all good having new features but stability comes first.
Thank-you.
