Like a lot of loyal DX4WIN users, I have waited around for years looking for that email from Paul announcing an upgrade. But now I have to agree with Mike/W8DN. Paul owes it to the DX4WIN community to inform us if DX4WIN has indeed gone into permanent non-support. That way we could avoid waiting around for an upgrade that is never to come and could start planning on moving on (regrettably).

As noted before, we are extremely lucky to have ancillary support from Jim/AD1C. I guess I should be more mellow. After all, I have saved a TON of money on update fees and the program does NEARLY everything I want it to. However, with that being said, it would REALLY be nice to know if there is ANY future for DX4Win beyond the OUTSTANDING support by Jim (and the user community of course). Along a similar line though, I imagine that any changes would probably involve a complete rewrite in a new (i.e., different) programming language and that would bring a whole new generation of issues, affectionately known as bugs or undocumented features. However, it might at the same time provide an opportunity to make DX4Win available to the Linux community as well.
