Post by fern »

I would like to read something by Don about Komodo 5. Not a word since weeks.

Hi Fern, the problem is the opposite. Too many words and no releases in several months.

4 months ago Larry said that a MP-related bug was stopping the release of the MP version, not sure if that is already solved or not.

Thank you, i remember of that, anyway it is a general question in which i wouldn't like to spend too much time.

What i know precisely is that for several different reasons, me, that i am a customer and i made a donation to Komodo project, i don't have anything after so many months and after having read so many news about Komodo that never transfer to releases.

It is highly disappointing.

But it's not a problem. Problems in life are others.

Did you pay for something you did not get?

Hi Roland,

i'm leaving so i'll be short, i payed for K4 and i had it, of course. Then i payed in advance for the MP (for my decision) even it wasn't be released so i payed for something i don't have BUT this is not a problem, it was my decision. The problem is that they are months, many months that Don and Larry say many things and even didn't release any MP version. Add that i made, on my decision, a donation to the K project.

I think i have many reasons to be disappointed but i want to clarify once again that the payment in advance for K4 MP and the donation were made on my decision and my request, Don and Larry didn't ask me anything.

Best Regards
MM

Hi Fern,

We just released Komodo 5 and are now busy on the MP version. I just made an announcement on talkchess.

We are probably going to have a more formal release schedule of twice a year, probably something like June and November - but that has not all been decided yet.

Capital punishment would be more effective as a preventive measure if it were administered prior to the crime.
