Download Problems - MapWindow
      03/18/06 09:09 PM

Hi there everybody,

I'm Christopher Michaelis, the lead software engineer for the MapWindow project. I just wanted to assure everybody here that the MapWindow project is very much alive and we're not going anywhere -- we're very actively developing the software, and we have some extensive plans for the future. As it stands we're operating along with Idaho State University, which is why the *.isu.edu links come into play with our software.

The software is open-source under the MPL, so it's not "owned" by Idaho State University in any way - but most of the active core developers for the project are students and/or employees of the university.

It seems that some places in the world are not able to resolve the isu.edu addresses. For this reason I've just altered all of the download links to go through mapwindow.org instead of the isu.edu address (even though they're the same box, the *.isu.edu link doesn't resolve for some users it seems).

Thanks - I'll get off my soapbox now, I just saw the "Is MapWindow still alive" comments above and wanted to soothe any fears that the project may be outdated or dead.

Thank you,
Chris Michaelis

PS - If anybody out there is still running into any problems trying to download the software, or if you have any other questions, please let me know (cmichaelis <at> happysquirrel.com).
