[Dxbase] Future of DXBase

Let me raise this possibility.  It appears that Neal is unable to put in 
the necessary time to  upgrade or update the software, and he may be 
agreeable to sell the program rights etc.  I would think that if Joe 
would be agreeable he could turn this ship around and head it in the 
right direction.  If joe was agreeable to this I would suggest that with 
so many wanting to "hang in there" they would be willing to contribute 
to the purchase.

I would think that first, Joe would have to agree in principal then he 
could contact Neil and see if he would be willing to sell and if so at 
what price.

I am just throwing this up on the table as a possibility.

I also started with DXBase back in the Dos days and remember Jack and 
another gentlemen started DXBase. I do not recall the other persons name 
and there also was a YL who was available to solve problems during the 
daytime when the two founders were at work.  I will also say that I left 
DXBase over four years ago but have always kept up with the web page 
keeping informed, DXBase has always had a soft spot with me from it's 
conception.  Over the years I had many conversations with Jack about my 
problems and always always found him to be ready to help, and that he did.

I will also say that once Neal purchased the software Joe was also my 
night in shining armor and would also come to my aid either via email or 
phone calls.  Joe you have kept this software alive, now it needs you to 
save it.

73, Pete, N4KW
