I moved this to its own sub-forum right under Axe parser and CaDan in Major TI community projects.

YAY for version 0.2.0, didn't expect to come out immediately :O

Btw you can lock your own topics. Above the Quick Reply there are a few options and Lock topic should be there. This should prevent non-staff from posting in it. Also I think you can still post in it if it's locked because Quigibo can with Axe Parser.

Why ?

I did not mean this in a bad way, I was just amazed at how incredibly quick he worked on this project. No need to jump on me

exams, studies, school projects, and the jump straight from version 0.1.0 to 0.2.0 suggests me a lot was added since 0.1.0, meaning it could take a while to add.

Notice how the board overall post rate went down by 100 posts a day approximately. Most people are busy with school exams atm, since it's May, projects have a slower progress rate and some members post less often, which is an indication that they have much less free time. This is why I was amazed at the speed at which Bwang worked on 0.2.0.

If those reasons are not valid for you, then I am sorry, but I did not mean anything wrong in my reply to version 0.2.0 release. I am entitled to my opinion, though, which is based on my 9 years of experience in the TI community (I saw many projects in the works and the rate at which they progress depending of the time of the year)

Yeah I guess it would apply to Ndless.

Also, three other factors can cause a project to die or slow down a lot in the TI community: lack of interest, quitting calc programming completly/moving on to other stuff or the person getting in trouble. I hope the later did not happen to Geogeo and ExtendeD with TI, altough I doubt ExtendeD got into serious trouble, if any, since he still shows up from time to time in the online list here (about once a week). As for moving on, I doubt this happened with those two people, noticing their dedication to the calc community since 2004-05, but we never know. I've been browsing TI sites since 2001 and I must tell you: when somebody stays around programming for longer than one year without losing interest, it's a miracle. A project can see loads of updates for a while, then suddently, one day, the author vanishes completly, leaving no more sign of life for months, then returning to say the project is discontinued and he is releasing the source. In some cases it's even worse, the author vanishes and never return (see RevSoft hosting).

(About your yAronet comment, yeah I found it very strange. Same for UTI. I would have expected UTI to continue getting a lot of traffic for the Nspire and key factoring stuff. Again, their downtimes and some other issues might have influenced UTI activity, though.)

Oh, ok

Are you plannign a ticalc release, btw?

Aaah ok good to hear
