Why you developers do this to us, users? This is not a beta, this is not even an alpha application. This application requires a lot of work before it can be shown to the public. I understand the desire of people to have a viable alternative to EndNote (which is a so so program), but this program has a very very long way to go to accomplish this task to the current EndNote level. Also, you need a different name. A lot of users familiar with iPapers already.

Why we do this? Because a lot of users love it already in its current form, despite the fact that their are obvious flaws we really work hard on. Also, it's a total misconception that we try to make an endnote replacement here.
I could go on for a few minutes, but as the above person already says: "No one is forcing you to use it in its current form". It's a new program, in the works, that fills a gap no other program is currently filling. We have to start somewhere.
Finally, if you are happy with iPapers, that's perfect but a lot of its users are not really happy with the fact that its development completely stalled.

That may very well be true, but it doesn't give you the right to appropriate its name. This was ugly and unethical.
