Greg, thank you for your praising words. FixIT is still alive and we use it in our own systems but we didn't have resources enough to maintain FreeFixit. The future of FreeFixIT is a topic we have to discuss in our group before of the end of this year.

Here is the page for their ...IT software.

This page shows that the current java version is called Java-FixIT.

The demo I saw of it, at the last ever MTA meeting, was very impressive. That was the Delphi version. Knowing the quality of their people, I would bank on the Java version being very effective. I can understand that the community might be hesitant to adopt it at the core of their applications since it is not opensource. Perhaps if their license agreement indicated that they will release the sourcecode if they ever quit supporting the software (something to that effect), then folks might be more inclined to build on it.

Yes.  It was called WebFixIT as I recall.

Wasn't there a Java version, too?
