I bought a license 2 month ago and now I'm forced tuo buy an upgrade license for version 2.x?

I got this as an answer from the developer: "You are not required to upgrade to 2.x at all."

I won't spend any money again on his app!

sorry, but this is not the way you treat clients after not updating your app for 1 year!

At least the developer could have mentioned that a new version ist coming out and that an update will be charged.

I purchased Linkinus because I liked the fact that it has a nice GUI and seemed like it had a lot of support.

Updates have stopped coming through and the latest version won't even register properly with the codes they sent me.

I emailed support and they re-sent my code and it still won't unlock the application. I emailed them again to point this out and they stopped responding to my emails. So even though I am a paying customer I cannot use their application.

Linkinus CommentaryStarted out with promise, but lacking progress now. - Version: 1.3, 4/22/2009 09:35AM PST

When Linkinus first came out, it all looked quite well, support was nice and quick, development reacted to problems and bugs nearly instantly and even included innovative new features.

But after some time, development slowed down, and after the 1.3 release in May 2008 it came to a stop, or so it seems. Blog updates were promised, but nothing happened, The 1.4 update's release has been moved forward and forward and forwand, until now there's not even an expected time of arrival anymore.
Additionally the public bugtracker has been shut down.
On the IRC channel there's talk they are working hard on the update, but that talk has been there for quite some time.

As it stands now, I can not recommend buying linkinus. Go ahead and try it out, but I wouln't advise on spending money on it until it's clear if and how it will move on.
