Quicksilver never "fully" worked. The question is, do the features you use work? I use a fair amount of Quicksilver and it's still working for me.
I'm waiting for Quick Search Box to support some kind of triggers and an equivalent of a third pane and maybe proxy objects. With that it could replace QS for me. Unfortunately, while triggers are the most voted for feature request for QSB, the developers haven't commented on it yet.

It seems to me that Quicksilver is all but dead. The source seems bloated and unmanageable at this point. As much as a diehard Quicksilver user I was for 3 years, it just doesn't fully work on Leopard. Wouldn't it be better to focus resources on the new Google Quick Search Box, with a team that already seems to be pretty productive and is putting out builds nightly, and work on it to be just as good as if not better than Quicksilver, rather than trying to salvage Quicksilver in its current state? Even its creator, Alcor, is working on QSB and probably doesn't even want anyone to focus on Quicksilver. Just want to know what you guys think, as the most devoted users of the application.
