Hi guys this is a quote from Denis in the googlegroup. for those who did not read it.

Hello, guys!

What the problem? Can I help?

I told you already several years ago I'm a lot better in communication
with actionscript code than in human communications. Do you belive me
now? ))

So I can say once again: sorry for my absence on the forum and in this
group. To be true I'm reading these resources from time to time (and
I'm managing new users as well). I can tell you the most horrible
questions for me, these are requests to implement some small and
simple feature. Yes, usually I know how to do it (one or two days of
work), but for today I have a list of non implemented small features
longer than my own stature (180cm).

Yes, I think I should do the same as Trausti did, hire some developers
to keep the rate of updates. But I have bad experience with the
outsource (and a funny story for you). Do you remember that link on my
main page (Gallery, under construction)? I hired a small team of php
developers to make this task, they are feeding me with nice PowerPoint
presentations about 10 month long then they take the last money
transfer and dissapeared somewhere in multi-million Bombay.

But other guys made viewat.org site, it's perfect, I'm visiting it
often, and I forget about my own gallery for now.

This years I'm going to build a small local team of Actionscript
developers. At first they will start with Flash components (other my
project) but later they will join to FPP project I believe.

About version 3.0: I can't say that I'm working on it day after day,
hour after hour, actually I didn't open it since last week... This is
other my problem, too many active projects. Last year I participated
in 7 big projects, some of them was successful and made some money for
me like omlet.ru or toox.com, some of them are not. This year is going
to be not so busy.

But let's say the true: I can't implement so many features as krpano
now, so, when I will launch 3.0, I will make some new important
feature impossible in other players. Otherwise it has no sense. Anyway
I think my architecture of the player is still better, maybe it can't
comfort you as customers but it's really important for me as for
developer.

Yes, and I should say a couple of words for my old customers: AYRTON,
Trausti, Scott, Corvus. Thank you for your loyalty, it's always so
nice to see familiar nicknames here
Remember, when we are just starting there was no one good Flash
panorama player at all... So, now we have several good enough players.
It's perfect! I can't say this "hurts" my business, because it was
never be a business only for me. Can someone say here that panoramas
are only business for him? I will not believe it ever

Thank you,
Denis.

P.S. I can answer here any questions not about features and not about
ETA with pleasure...
