j3cub -

I agree wholeheartedly. Now that there is money involved, I find it even more difficult to believe that there has been no response from the devs. Grumblemarc, you mentioned that "communication is what it is" ... unfortunately, that doesn't make it acceptable. I have done my share of volunteer work and I know for certain that I would not be able to get away with this type of "communication". I don't think anybody would.

The sky is blue. Rain is wet. It is what it is. I don't subscribe to the sparse communication we get from the devs BUT it is better than none at all. All you do by complaining about the lack of communication is drive the devs further from you. The FB team isn't very big and I can only assume they have separate and busy lives OUTSIDE the realm of Fireboard. So cut them some slack. I know their working on OTHER projects inline with this one. I would rather them do that AND GET IT RIGHT than waste time talking about it. They might just decide that all the grief they get isn't worth it and abandon the project. I don't see that happening but you never know.

"Cut them some slack" ... exactly how much more do we "cut"? How many more $$ do we throw at them so that their time is compensated for a product for which there is obviously a demand?

I guess that as a person that runs a private business, I don't understand the logic that has been displayed.

Initially, I would have agreed with you. Yes, we all do have lives and yes, we all have demands on our time. Welcome to life on planet earth. But I don't think it's unreasonable to ask for some simple answers to some simple questions and hope for a little transparency in the process.

I would like to see the fruits of their labors as we all would. And yes, I do understand that the development process takes time for a successful product to be realized. But when the moderators and developers tell you not to complain, to step up and test/donate etc ... and then WE do so ... and nothing comes of it ... $$ are involved and there is a blatant disregard ... I start to wonder.

And ... if they would be prepared to abandon the project that readily, what does it say about the project and/or the process of succeeding in the first place?

i also need a good SMF-FB converter but i can wait for it to be released..

it may seem that the developers are nowhere to be found but they may have something good for us when they return..

a little more patience..

Are those PROMISED donations or ACTUAL money that HAS BEEN donated? I'm just curious. I just want to clarify exactly WHO is over-promising and under-delivering.

I'd really like to move to fireboard but I can't manage to convert it. It's 2 years old so starting from scratch is not an option. I guess I'll hang on in there and hope a converter becomes available sometime soon.

I also look out for a "real" converter.
My SMF is getting really f*cked up and can't wait to start with fireboard and finally build everything without bridges, hacks and other workarounds..

I have been watching this site from the beginning, hope that what has been promised from the start (SMF import will come soon) will come soon.

Keep up the good work!
