Posts: 119                many thanks - great news

just read this however

Real Software and Real Studio no longer exist.

Deep breath.

Okay, seriously, that’s a little dramatic (ya’ think!?) but what might be 
described as the boldest decision the company has ever made.  Real Software has 
changed its name to Xojo, Inc. and Real Studio (formerly REALbasic) will now be 
named Xojo.  I think this move is good and bad and I’ll explain both.

Seriously you leave the beta list for a month and the whole thing folds.

cant renew now so I guess I will wait and see

Location: Boiling Springs, SC                I think it's an excellent move on 
Xojo, Inc's part since it will also increase search engine page ratings  I've 
had almost 5-6 months to adjust to the new name..so it's started to 
stick...can't wait for everyone to see what Xojo Inc has been busy working on. 
Please be sure to thank them for all their hard work!

them for all their hard work!I really don't care what the name is.  They will 
get my thanks by way of my subscription being renewed, if I think they deserve 
it.  The product and feature set has little to do with my current refusal to 
pay any more money to Real Software, Xojo Inc or whatever other moniker they 
choose to use.  

I will be very interested to see how Xojo treat existing and recently lapsed 
subscribers during the transition.  I would like Xojo to be a new beginning in 
the way Real Software / Xojo Inc do business with existing developers, but it 
could just be yet another stunt to secure a short term increase in profit 
margin.

Posts: 119                still not up. I assume doing an update while the 
conference is on is not a good idea, if planned at all.

Location: NotEvenOnTheMap, CT                No, not planned. If you look at 
our blog, you'll see we're working at migrating to a new set of servers because 
our current one was compromised in a non-recoverable way.

Let's put it this way, if you think deploying a WE app is hard, you haven't 
seen anything yet. I feel like we're real close to getting the website back up, 
but other services will come and go throughout the week.

Understand though, we're not even sure we have a problem on the current server. 
There is a possibility, but no proof. Given that the server accepts credit 
cards, the decision was made that the mere possibility of a deep hack (a root 
kit) represents a risk the company was not willing to accept. The downtime, 
while damaging to us, is not as bad as potentially leaking credit card data.
