Hi Tom, I think the most pressing concern is that we seem to have lost control of dqsd.net -- updates aren't bubbling through as they should, and we don't know who has access to the host.
- There is a wiki (now defunct, apparently, I can't get to the pages) for developers at SourceForge. Would a user-facing wiki be valuable? - Feature requests can be made at SourceForge. I agree it's not as appealing as the link you posted. My life is busy with two small children, and I don't have all that much time to develop DQSD, but I'd love to see it grow, too. :) If we could get the infrastructural problems sorted, maybe we could kickstart development again, starting with a proper 4.1 release, and then look into the various issues we have? - Kim On Fri, Feb 26, 2010 at 01:36, Tom Corcoran <tom.corco...@moonbade.com>wrote: > I did not need another sign to know DQSD was in trouble but no response to > my post shows that.
