[Dx4win] DX4WIN Status

[Duane Calvin]

Agreed.  However, understand that if you plan to move all your QSL info,
credits, etc., to a new logger, be prepared to do a lot it manually
(whatever you can't recover from LOTW award credits).  That, and not finding
another logger that can present all the information I need in a very small
screen space are what has held me back from moving.  I'm hoping against hope
that Paul will eventually have time to do some upgrading for new rigs, etc.

Like a lot of loyal DX4WIN users, I have waited around for years looking for
that email from Paul announcing an upgrade. But now I have to agree with
Mike/W8DN. Paul owes it to the DX4WIN community to inform us if DX4WIN has
indeed gone into permanent non-support. That way we could avoid waiting
around for an upgrade that is never to come and could start planning on
moving on (regrettably).

...and NO WORD from the author as to whether updates are even being
considered. As noted before, we are extremely lucky to have ancillary
support from Jim/AD1C.
   I guess I should be more mellow. After all, I have saved a TON of money
on update fees and the program does NEARLY everything I want it to. However,
with that being said, it would REALLY be nice to know if there is ANY future
for DX4Win beyond the OUTSTANDING support by Jim (and the user community of
course).
   Along a similar line though, I imagine that any changes would probably
involve a complete rewrite in a new (i.e., different) programming language
and that would bring a whole new generation of issues, affectionately known
as bugs or undocumented features. However, it might at the same time provide
an opportunity to make DX4Win available to the Linux community as well.
