I'm still fairly new around here but noticed that Mithrandir hasn't posted in quite awhile. Hope he's just taking a break and that alls ok.

Yeah, I wonder about that too, especially after he gives all the time he does and still gets a lot of bad-mouthing. Oh, well, best not get started...
MMM...It tastes like chicken! ...

I expect he - and other core coders - are hard at work on the next update.

The core devs ARE very busy working on the next version(s), plus real life tends to grab ones attention more then ususal every now and again

At least it gives the rest of us a chance to catch up with our post-count

I rediscovered the developer forums and the XOOPS CVS last night and I can tell you Mith and the devs (ha, sounds like the name for a 60's band) have been very busy in both places.

I also discovered from reading those forums that, believe it or not, developers have lives! I mean, I didn't know that. Did you know that? And here I thought they were all chained like slaves to their computers.

All kidding aside, I'm fairly new here as well and was beginning to have some of my own concerns. From reading the dev forums it looks like almost everyone took a badly needed summer vacation and activity is now starting to build again.

Looks like exciting times ahead!

Remember their number one hit "Xoops I'm Sorry"

If it was a seventies group they could be called the XOOPS Brothers.

Or "Xoops I did it again"

Seriously though, I believe Mith and others deserve more respect then they are sometimes getting in comments from some people. I mean, there's a good deal of people that say good thing, but there's as much of others who aren't exactly giving constructive criticism, but just plain rude criticism. I just hope such behaviour doesn't turn developers motivation down.

On a bright note, there's alot of people who, despite all the problems we run into, all the quite madness outbursts caused by sites which all of a sudden don't work, keep their respect at the level. Also, people like Mith obviously love what they do, why would they do that for such a long time and so intensively otherwise.

Cheers all
