I’ve written some negative stuff about UltraRecall’s development tactics (I definitely wouldn’t call it a strategy) here http://www.outlinersoftware.com/topics/viewt/4078/0/new-ultrarecall-version-released so in all fairness I should at least add here a couple of uniquely positive points on the program.

(1) I second Pavi’s accolade on UR’s file organisation abilities. In this respect I believe it is unsurpassable.

(2) In respect to UR’s future I have no idea. But what I find excellent on behalf of its developer, Kinook, is that they’ve already provided a tool for managing UR files directly via SQLite, its database enegine http://www.kinook.com/Forum/showthread.php?t=2825

SQLite http://sqlite.org/ is free and open source and, as stated in its website, the most widely used SQL database tool in the world. I can’t think of a better way to ensure future access of one’s data.
