They decided to dump TinyTablePlus from their product roster because it's "too old". It actually hasn't been updated in years because it's rock solid and hasn't needed even the tiniest of updates.
clarification: we simply do not offer it with 2 of our most basic plans, where we must limit the installed products in order to maintain stability and prevent future problems for our most inexperienced clients.
And this just baffles me. You're penalising a product for being "too stable", how bizare is that?! TinyTablePlus has done it's job just fine for many a zope version without needing any changes. That's the only reason why it looks so old. It's still maintained in that I would fix it if there were actually any problems...
The fact that in the face of contrary evidence you stick with an incorrect decision makes me a little nervous ;-)
actually the client whose banner you took up on this issue came back yesterday and signed up for the plan i wanted to recommended for him in the first place. problem solved.
Indeed, but it's the way the whole issue was handled that makes me nervous...
we have done nothing wrong and handled this issue professionally. if you want to create public FUD about us, then at least find a good reason for it. o/o <--> george donnelly ~ http://www.zettai.net/ ~ "Quality Zope Hosting" Complete Zope Hosting ~ Dedicated Servers ~ Plone Hosting Solutions Y/AIM: zettainet ~ Jabber: info@zettai.net ~ Sales: (866) 408-5395
