Hi Jan,

I have on two occassions (pre-open source and post-open source) downloaded and tried Quartam Reports. But both times it fell down for me in trying to handle Japanese/UTF8. Can't recall if it was in presenting the data or in the editor itself (or, of course, could have been operator error!) but I couldn't make it do what I needed...

If the LC of the future makes good on its, 'it just works' goal for UTF8, and Quartam Reports followed suite, I would become a happy customer, no doubt.

Hi all,

With the right funding, I would consider making Quartam Reports open-source 
under a dual license.
This would obviate the need for a whole new project that has to go through all 
the same pains I did.
Admittedly, things have been quiet on the news front, but I have been preparing 
two major updates.
One brings a series of enhancements to the current version, and the other 
constitutes a complete rewrite.
The point of the rewrite is to bring the report runtime up-to-date with the 
latest LiveCode features.
And to tame the beast that is the report editor which has proven harder to 
maintain than planned.

Best regards,

Jan Schenkel.
