Art,
I started this post with a question to the owner not to Zoran or You.
This is not some Santa Claus wish list with what I want for Christmas.
Therefore I am going to put my original again.

It has been some time since the last release. Been a DX4WIN user for Ten 
Years or more.
Are there going to be further versions or has DX4WIN been put on the 
shelf? Is the
architecture or platform so old that it's too difficult to continue? 
Should we continue
to patiently wait or learning another logging program which has more to 
offer.

For starters the steps one has to take to upload a log to LOTW is many 
and confusing.
This is well known. I downloaded and installed DXLAB. With two mouse 
clicks my log is
uploaded to LOTW.  It's amazing. Why can we not have the same with DX4WIN?
DX4WIN is still my logging program.

If time constraints are the problem for DX4WIN updates perhaps it's time 
to sell the company
and allow someone to further develop this great classic dx logging program.
