Why Treehouse doesn´t update their courses?

Why Treehouse doesn´t update their courses? i being working until this stage in Android Studio and now you guys changed the work space to ADT?? I don´t have any of this options in the main.xml when i want to add a new button in Action Bar....

I appreciate that updating the entire set of videos when a new Android version or Android Studio version comes out can take some time. However, if the Teacher's Notes can be updated with instructions on what changes need to be made, it will save us a lot of time trying to figure out how to get things working.

Here you can see that "Build a Self-Destructing Message app" is planned. Don't know when they actually start working on it but it's nice to see that they keep that in mind.

Some of the older courses still use ADT but I assume those will be updated at some time. Feel free to keep using Android Studios, an IDE is simply a tool and the while this may make the course a little harder to follow the content should be the same.

Goodluck! --Ricky

Mainly because Treehouse loves you.
