Chainer and Xlutop - what's become of them?

[taji]

I receved the following e-mail reply from Thomas (the developer of Chainer) on June 10, 2004:

Hello,

the development of Chainer has stopped at the moment. The future of Chainer is still undecided.

Regards,
Thomas Potulski

I was a bit surprised that I received a response at all. I followed up with a polite e-mail commenting on how great Chainer is, and encouraging Thomas to continue development but never received another reply. I'm using Console (www.console.jp) now and aside from the modular GUI, I really like it. I've requested some new features for Console and (remarkably) the developers have promised to implement them before the year's end. On the other hand, I got the same promises from Thomas, so who knows what will become of it . Still waiting for the perfect VST host . Even with the delays, I'd upgrade in a second if a new version of Chainer came out.

It's just a shame that such a great unique application could disappear. What with Chainer, Muzy's, etc, we need to start a software obituary .

The future of Chainer is uncertain. Possibly there will be an update in the future. For the moment another software project has a higher priority.

the development of Chainer has stopped at the moment. The future of Chainer is still undecided.

Just grasping at straws, but that almost reads like he's working for another developer. Bigwigs get pretty picky about what their employees do in their spare time.

Like I said . . .just guessing . . .
