Hi Kamen,

By the way could you please elaborate a bit about this maintenance mode you've mentioned? I find bknr-datastore a superb technology applicable in many projects and as I remember how passionate you were about it, this sounds weird.
I still believe that the datastore approach is right, and I don´t expect to change my opinion. "Maintenance mode" means that I do not currently have new projects based on BKNR, so I am supporting my two existing projects and that´s about it. When Manuel and I started developing BKNR, I planned to stay self-employed and do more commercial products based on this technology. As time has shown, I did not have enough financial background to bridge the time between projects (I have family to support), so I am now employed again and working on C++/Javascript based embedded systems for a living. Supporting my old customers and BKNR is something I do in my free time.
Manuel, who wrote a lot of the better stuff in BKNR, has pretty much left computing for personal reasons, so I am the only person to support the system right now. As I wrote: I do my best to do this, but in the end it is more or less a hobby which cannot really take that much of my free time.
Cheers, Hans
