The thing is, and the reason I think it is more of an issue, is
because it wasn't like this before, but it is now. And when you put
so much into a product, you hate to leave it, for some reason such as
this. I hope witango inc learns something, because I would love to
see witango prosper in the future.
And I hope a lot of witango customers learn, before they shell out
any dough for upgrades and expect any type of support. This list is
good, but I wouldn't count on it.

Thank you Robert for your courteous and thoughtful response.
I deserved no better than to be ignored, so thank you.
Admittedly my "suck it up" comment was a bit much, so I apologize
to Gene specifically for that, given I understand now that I read
some things out of context. But I still have some angst with other
content.
But I digress...
After reading your well written detailed summaries of how you
arrived at your own business decisions, with which I concur - and
many others like it from other members over recent years (including
my own). I do have to wonder why "we" have to continue to re-learn
the same lesson over-and-over again.
Witango has little or no "official" support.
So why get upset when they don't respond? A newbie yes, I can
understand. But how long have most of us been here?
And if folks are going to continue to use the product, base your
decision on that hard fact of little or no vendor support.
Meaning... be prepared for when you have problems because you could
be out in the cold.
I think this community is great. You especially Robert have filled
the gap between people's unfortunate situations and empowered
knowledge.
But I must say, it hurts when so many have to keep learning this
lesson over and over again, year-after-year, whereas it should be
second nature to us by now.
I also still believe that Witango has many wonderful aspects to
it's "vision", but that wasn't enough for me quite some time ago.
Sorry, but my self-absorbed insight feels that if this great bunch
of people are to continue as a community, then there needs to a
better foundation of reality to it - to make the most out of what
we have to work with.
I think maybe we don't see that our particular community has
strengths to it that are independent of Witango.
All the best to everyone, including Phil.
