Hi Merle I can only agree with every thing you have said, I speak for everyone when I say I wish Joe would stay a part of our community and will happily welcome his return if he decides to get involved in the future. I cannot tell you how valuable his experience and guidance has been to me!
Joe has given me permission to post his tools on my website so his timely reminder is good to kick my butt in gear to get them up. In terms of updating Joe's tools, I imagine over time many of them will migrate into DXBase itself. I will do my best to keep those that aren't part of DXBase updated and hope like heck that Joe will return when he can! 73 Neal Campbell Abroham Neal Software www.abrohamnealsoftware.com (540) 645 5394 NEW PHONE NUMBER Amateur Radio: K3NC Blog: http://www.abrohamnealsoftware.com/blog/ DXBase bug reports: email to [email protected] Abroham Neal forums: http:/www.abrohamnealsoftware.com/community/ On Wed, Mar 31, 2010 at 1:12 PM, Merle Bone <[email protected]> wrote: > Joe, > I don't know what has caused your exit from the DXBase team, but > I am positive your efforts will be greatly missed.
