I agree.
I have put many years worth of work in kixtart/kixforms scripts. (it's pretty much what I do all day every work day.) One script in particular is over 15,000 lines (not including comments) and is part of a larger business critical system I developed for our organisation. I am very worried about the future of both KiXtart and KiXforms and that I may have burdened my organisation with something that may not be supportable going forward.
I know, I know, a lot of that is my fault. But in my defence, I didn't initially intend on my little app I wrote for fun becoming what it is now.
I would therefore very much like to hear not only what Ruud's intentions are for KiXtart, but also what Shawn's intentions are for KiXforms. I would love for KiXtart to support accessing the .NET framework as COM seems to be on the way out, and I would also very much like to be able to extend the properties, methods and events supported by KiXforms. I have desperately suggested that maybe KiXforms be made open source but regrettably I didn't get a response.
A response would go a long way to easing my worries.
