Re: [WebMacro-user] FINAL REQUEST: 2.0 Release

[Keats K. <ke...@xa...>]

Obviously the WM project is not particularly healthy at this point.  The 
core developers appear to be focused on other projects and no one has 
picked up the mantle.  On the other hand, WM appears to be remarkably 
stable and still quite useful.  The 2.0 enhancements also appear to be 
solid, so it definitely  makes sense to have a release candidate.  Since 
Eric isn't able to find the time right now, I may try to do this 
sometime soon.

We welcome anyone who shares the WM vision to step forward and help 
revive this project.  Otherwise 2.0 will probably be the final release.
