have progressed
Hello
1. The answer to this question must wait until we have progressed further in the analysis of Hitler's subsequent development.
Why "have progressed" I would write "until we will progress..." or "until we progress..." Would it be fine?
Thank You

Hi NG Until we will progress isn't good because the future tense is not normally used in temporal subordinate clauses. Until we progress is all right. Have progressed is possible.

- I don't see much actual difference between the present tense and the perfect in this sentence.

Hi,
The answer to this question must wait until we have progressed further in the analysis of Hitler's subsequent development.
Here's are a couple of subjective comments focussing on style..
The idea of 'progress' really seems to include the concept of 'further', so 'further ' seems redundant'.
I don't like the verb form of 'progress

If you wait until something happens (like we progress), you may be waiting only until the beginning of the event (progress starts). Or you may be waiting until something has actually happened (progress has actually been made).
If you wait until something has happened (like we have progressed), you are certainly waiting until the event has reached a (partial, at
