Well, I’m sorry to see that. I think Steve Z is right: Hog Bay now has a solid rep for producing genius products that lose steam.

On the other hand, the TaskPaper format really is brilliant. And although I’ve given up on other versions (Taskmator?), I like the implementation in Editorial very much: TaskPaper format, markdown, plaintext. So good ideas (mostly) live on, and get incorporated in some fashion or another into our tool chests.

On the third hand, I haven’t spent a lot of money on Hog Bay software, so don’t feel quite the sense of (justified) betrayal others may feel.
