Ideamason abandoned

It is too bad that Ideamason will no longer be developed or supported. It is a beefy piece of software with loads of functionality. I think the implementation isn’t entirely user friendly, which is why the developers had trouble selling such a capable application.

On another note, I’m not entirely sure I buy their excuse that the economy caused them to close their doors. My impression for the past two years has been that development was stalled. At one point they had mentioned on their blog that some new features were going to be added to the next version, but the next version never materialized and when I went back to look for the reference in the blog, I could no longer find it… that was six months ago. I guess it makes it easier, however, to blame the economy, which, undoubtedly didn’t help matters.
