Because the developer doesn't have time to develop it further at the
moment?
Support contracts are always available, but I warn you I'm expensive.
As if you didn't know that :) I must admit that maybe I shouldn't have
made it so robust... many VishwaKarma users tend to pay for
installation and then find that they don't need any support from me
because the dam' thing just works. Next time I'll ensure I make a
flaky product so that people keep coming back to me for support and
patches. Ah, the things one can learn from Microsux!
Another possibility may be to install VishwaKarma and ask for help on
this list or the VishwaKarma list if you get stuck. I'll probably
reply to the extent that I can figure out your problem remotely. If I
have to login, I'll charge... you know the rate -- half your kingdom
and your daughter's hand in marriage.
