We here at konad will continue to write extensions of Gwindows and we actually use it in our development. Periodically we will put our latest snapshot at http://www.konad.de/download.htm and the license will always be GMGPL. But we don't have the resources to host and manage a big Open Source Project. Of course if Gwindows (the base packages) would be maintained, we could simplify our source management. At the moment for example we track the Gwindows bugs (not many) and fix them in our extension packages but not in the original source. Regards, Frank Piron -- Crisis?
