Tim let you know ...

Post by Stefan Lichius »

Hi all,

my name is Stefan Lichius and I´m the european representative of Tim and a good friend of him.
Since little Gabriel is born - times has changed :)
I will help him and will have a look on the messages in the Forum for the next weeks.
Going through all the messages in the forum would take a lot of time and would distract him from the programming work, which is why he has not visited it for a longer time.
Tim let you know the following:

"My time has gotten very short with the family and new
baby -- he is sleeping only about 7 hours a night and requires a
considerable amount of attention during the day; my wife and I are
having to trade off shifts to take care of him. Quite honestly I was
not quite prepared for this, and it's made all the more difficult
because I program in my home office. I no longer get 8-hour blocks of
programming time like I used to, and this makes it quite a challenge to
maintain 30,000 lines of code. But Digital Atmosphere work is still
going on. The new sounding module and an animation module were
completed over the weekend and I am working this into the new version.
Our situation is improving and I hope to be back on the forum within the
next couple of weeks. I ask for everyone's patience until I get this
back on track -- I am trying the best I can under the circumstances. I
have set a deadline for myself of early June to finish the version."

So - feel free to send your questions and messages in the Forum.
I will have a look on it and communicate with Tim to find answers on the most important things.
Please be indulgent for my english and don`t hang me up - but I will do my very best :lol:

Thanks for your patience,

Stefan Lichius

Stefan,
Thank you for the good information. Anyone with kids certainly understands the situation. I'm sure everyone is quite undestanding and supportive.

In the meantime, is there ANY way you could relate to Tim that it would be really nice if he could just temporarily re-issue 1.0f again with the expiration reset -- perhaps calling it 1.0f2 or something?

This would actually keep everyone's appetite whetted for the new product, rather than interest dying down -- a marketing thing.

Thanks for your help and part in the overall effort!

Stefan

Nimmst du auch Fragen in Deutsch an?? :D

I like to use my German whenever I can, living in CH for 15 years makes it a habit...

Anyway...I think we all can feel for Tim. And I know myself how tough it can be to maintain 30000 lines of code....not an easy undertaking! But an extension would definately be appreciated.

Hallo Michael,

Viele Grüße in die Schweiz!
