I really am sorry that we’ve been so quiet about TopStyle. As NewsGator CTO Greg Reinacker explains in this forum post, we’ve spent quite a bit of time trying to find a new home for TopStyle, and we couldn’t say much while conversations with potential buyers were going on. Sill, I know we could’ve done a lot better communicating with TopStyle customers during this time, and I personally regret how we handled this situation.
Anyway, in the end we’ve decided to keep TopStyle as a NewsGator product, and our immediate goal is to release TopStyle 3.5 as soon as possible. Version 3.5 will primarily be a bug fix and Vista-compatibility release, but I hope to sneak a few new features in, too :)
Once TopStyle 3.5 goes out, we’d like to begin work on TopStyle 4.0. And this is where you come in: given all the activity around FeedDemon, it’s unlikely that I’d have enough time to create a major release of TopStyle, so we’re actively searching for a skilled Delphi developer to eventually take it over. If you’re interested, or you know someone who might be interested, please check out the job description for details on the position.
