must come to an end. While I don't feel the deep bitterness expressed by some others below, I also would have gladly paid $20 or so directly to Dan. I am not so sanguine about paying Mariner because I don't feel they can "improve" it enough nor give it the great support Dan has in the past to justify $30 (and who knows, maybe more in the future, if they can get away with it.) I am also inclined to hang onto the 2.x version without guilt because it is a very solid, useful application. Good luck, Dan, and belated thanks for the long, free ride.
