Strong words, Tim.

As I see it, WOL would be an enhancement to existing functionality.  I
don't see many people in the industry working on enhancements for
products that no longer ship.  It's not like you're asking for a bug to
be fixed.  Perhaps the problem here is that Slimdevices have been too
open?  Allowing all and sundry to file 'bugs', and expecting them to be
fixed?  Ultimately, the SB1 stopped shipping a long time ago, and any
time spent on enhancements to this is time not spent on enhancing the
currently shipping model, which is what will drive sales.

I would like to see someone from Slim Devices step up and state whether
this is a decision cause by an actual impassable technical barrier or
if this is a resource decision based on this being the "no new firmware
features" point in the SB1 lifecycle.  

If this "WONTFIX" designation is to become the norm, how long until SB1
firmware is EOL for support, or is it already?  I haven't found a policy
anywhere on the site that spells this out and if I'm ever to spend any
money in the future with Slim Devices, I would like to know how long
Slim Devices plans to support and develop for that hardware platform
from a firmware standpoint.  Again, the concern here is not the server
software piece, but the firmware itself.  

There are numerous accolades granted to Slim Devices with regard to
their customer service, even within this forum.  I would like to see
some action to back that up, even if it is just an honest, simple
communication to set accurate expectations.
