I didn't mean for my comment to come off as being snide but perhaps
some of us see a pattern. After 4 business days during which we saw 50
posts to the list, the last 24 hours has been pretty much silent. If I
remember correctly, this is identical to how things were a year ago
when this hit the surface. There was a flurry of "Where's Phil" posts,
Phil came on, responded, and the matter crawled back under the carpet
again.
I understand that Phil needs to pay the bills, etc. and that Witango
probably wasn't doing that for him. So the project has been moved away
from the front burner.
In the past there have been comments about the fact that With has now
owned the Tango/Witango product longer than EveryWare/Pervasive did.
But if you remember correctly, when Pervasive shelved Tango, they were
upfront. No further development, etc. Many of us hoped for a white
knight to appear and I know that I am grateful that Phil did step up.
But we were only about a year in limbo then and that was for a product
that had been announced as dead. We've waited over 2 years now for
version 6 to be released. There has been no mention that it has died.
People have offered their support, and nothing was said to them. Not
even a "Thank you but I've got it covered".
I'd love to give With $2000-3000 for a new Witango Studio and Server
but judging by the comments about the lack of email response, from
emails sent directly to the company, would I be wise in doing so?
Phil, before the summer hits for you, perhaps you could take some time
to figure out where all of this is heading. Before we lose another 2-3
months to vacations, etc., accept the Witango community's offer to
assist you.
As someone who just missed the birth but was there when Tango was
still a free add-on to Butler shipping on floppy disks, I'd hate to
see the product die.

Phil, I know that you are not a communicator, but it would really be
helpful if you
could respond one more time before being out of touch for another
lengthy period.
Just be honest with us instead of non-responsive. We want more news
about version 6.
If all you can say is that you're working on it but can't give us an
estimate as to when
it will be done, that would at least be respecting us by giving a
response. Please.
