Gene, The should be something coming soon. As far as I know it is just the legal issues in moving toward open source holding things up. But I am hoping there will be an update soon from With so we know where everything is at and then monthly updates till things are ready to roll. At this point I think it is better to have it move to open source.
At least on the Windows side it still is working well. Meanwhile all we can do is wait and hope that communication can be more regular even if it is just to say nothing has changed -- Dan Stein FileMaker 7 Certified Developer Digital Software Solutions 799 Evergreen Circle Telford PA 18969 Land: 215-799-0192 Cell: 610-256-2843 Fax 215-799-0192 ( Call 1st) FMP, WiTango, EDI,SQL 2000, MySQL, CWP [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.dss-db.com 'I wonder why we say that people are of different "races".

Subject: RE: Witango-Talk: Version 6? I also read the list and am as frustrated as anyone else with the lack of support and communication from With. This lack of communication and news on the product is one of the reasons my company has decided to move away from Witango. It's hard to defend a product to management types when you don't hear about it, no one seems to be using it and the only real support you can contact are the people on this list and a semi-searchable e-mail archive. Has anyone thought of suggesting to a larger company, like Apple or Oracle, that they look at Witango as an acquisition? We are moving to Oracle and in the training I have taken so far their reporting and programming tools are far from the power Witango provides. Yes, I know Witango is supposed to be going open source but, to me anyway, it seems like another dead end. I mean, six months with no word? Even if things are running into roadblocks, which always seems to happen, at least there could be monthly communication stating that fact. Some of us must have contacts within larger companies that might be able to get them to at least look at Witango and evaluate it. Some company other than Pervasive that is. *grins* If Apple or Oracle picked up Witango I imagine within a relatively short time we'd see improvements, additional functionality, and communications. It would also make it much, much easier to sell to customers (I consider my management a customer) if we could say, "Witango is an Apple (or place your large company name here) product." Just a thought. From: Rick Sanders [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2008 4:48 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Witango-Talk: Version 6? I can understand everyone¹s frustration in this regard. Although I don¹t post much, I do read emails on the list. Communication is very important, and because of the lack of communication unfortunately many people have left the WiTango technology. I can only hope that the delay is because of something really good on the horizon. I don¹t know how WiTango sales have been, or how much interest there is in the community, but I hope it¹s enough to keep WiTango going.

I have sent three back channel emails maybe more email to customer support will get a response. But I agree communication keep declining and I fail to understand why that is. I still love the product and even if 6 never came out I would continue with 5.5 but it is a reasonable request from the community that we be kept in the loop. Last we heard there were just a few legal issues to resolve with open source license but then nothing. It has been since 2/11/2008 since we had the last official word. 6 months.
