That's all very well (to say), but, does anything you have said actually
address anything brought up in this thread?
Taking a quick (re)look at this thread, it started noting that the world
is moving outward to other platforms, and away from locked in
proprietary systems, particularly, Windows, or current sync'ing
methodologies.
It's all very well to say that v4 is coming / enhances the desktop, but
almost nothing in this thread, IIRC, speaks to the current desktop
client or its features.
Please point out anything I have missed or misunderstood.

Personally, I think Andrey covers an enormous amount of ground with his
small team which does include him as a full time member ( if I remember
correctly, he posted a small numbers of years ago to say that he was
jacking the day job and going full time on MLO). In the last two (?)
years he has:
·Built capable mobile versions of MLO for the main mainstream platforms
·Set up a cloud environment allowing multiple instances of MLO to synch
·Implemented an synch facility across these different platforms
Yes – further enhancements to the desktop version have stalled in that
time – but I am pleased to say that (as a member of the private beta
group) that there are some major enhancements in V4 – some of which
Andrey has already posted to the MLO blog about and others of which he
has yet to mention. Not everything that I would like to see but
enough to keep me very happy and to demonstrate that is committed to
(and can deliver) a programme of major (and robust) enhancements to MLO
in a relatively short space of time. I am using the MLO V4 beta for my
day to day work and it is very stable and there are several features
which have significantly improved my productivity.

I think that what we're all forgetting is that the manpower just isn't
there. I've pretty much gathered from what hasn't and has been said that
Andrey just doesn't have the manpower to do all of this. It's apparent
to me that he's not even trying to be competitive at this point probably
because he can't. I'm willing to guess that MLO hasn't been Andrey's
"bread and butter" so development is probably being done on the side. As
much as I love MLO, let's face it, development is slow. I'm seeing
features in open source software out there that is free, for example,
that MLO has yet to include (i.e., rich text notes, calendar support) so
as a user, I'm fortunate enough to be using a platform on which MLO works.
All of these ideas sound great but when would any of it really be
implemented? At this rate, not soon enough to be practical, it seems.
I'm not trying to be negative but that's the state of things as they are
now. If I'm wrong on that then by all means, let me know because I want
to be.

* If we are talking about ultimate commercial success, it would be
sufficient to follow the road map of a top developer, like for
example, Evernote
o Evernote has fully functional native applications on the two
major desktop OSs
o Has somewhat less functional (but more UI optimized) native
support on the various mobile OSs
o Has a sufficiently functional web interface
* Based on the above, MLO is not far behind, relatively speaking!
o MLO's strength is in the nuanced interface for a major desktop OS
o Even if/when a web version is available, we should not look to
it for a full set of features, because the web technologies of
today are too clumsy to replicate the winning UI features which
we all love in MLO
* Further OS expansion, that is, to ensure "a future", would be based
on total market share/utilization vs development effort
o I doubt that the various Linux implementations are on this map,
nor should they be
o MLO is not open source, just because you choose an open source
OS does not mean that all your favorite apps will suddenly be
supported
o When you can run Microsoft Project on Raspberry Pi, then this
line of concerns will be more relevant. Perhaps this should have
been my first point instead of last

I've checked a MLO roadmap and I must say I don't see a good future for
MLO . MLO is doing a big mistake: no web app or API for MLO cloud, there
is even no basic support for web planned . Now MLO is just not a true
multi OS device.
I've have 3 new machines and on every of them I cannot use MLO. One is
Raspberry PI, one is laptop with Ubuntu, one is VMware with Lubuntu for
my TV ( I have Windows PC and Galaxy note which I am using fine with
MLO) . I know, this is Linux and Linux is not supported, but the problem
is bigger:
Now we have Windows RT released. How to use MLO?
As in my example I have some machines with Linux, how to use MLO?
If windows 8 fails, and some people will turn to Mac/Linux, what to do?
If I bought chrome book, how to use MLO?
In short I don't think the developement for all the OS will be fast
enough without any web app...
