Hello,
Can we get some confirmation on the statement you just made please
as it is a serious point you've just made there. If there is no developer
working on the code base and it is a too 'big ball of mud' for someone else
to fathom it marks the Tesseract product right down in terms of
adoptability.
Cheers,
Neil
