valtron hasn’t been on any vacation for the past year. He’s just been busy and time for other things has consumed the time he could spend on bettering Escargot.
However, @TReKiE’s offered to help with moving the upcoming release forward and I told him he could reach out to valtron about getting direct server access. It hasn’t been confirmed yet, but it would be very beneficial if he did, especially since he’s more proficient in managing parts of the system and is more knowledgable with administrating these kinds of systems all around. Stay tuned for following updates.
I’ve made it apparent several times here that neither me or anyone else can predict when support will come out. We’re making progress in several other aspects but as for releasing, we’re undecided until we’re sure about when it’ll come out.
Also “days” lol. I can say for sure releasing the updates would take more than a few days.
He can assist in more of the nitty gritty like migrating the databases over, but it’s not a given. Plus I assume valtron will be able to deal with client patches once the heavy stuff is out of the way, so it’s not just that TReKiE will magically make WLM 2009 work (yes, he’s worked with the software intimately for a long time, but he’s not a miracle worker).
