- I seem to have missed the original post so I'll comment this...
-
- I am aware that I have really tried some people's patience by not being
- able to get the registered copies out of the door in time. Some users have
- been waiting for quite some time. I have delivered to at least 60% of all
- who have registered to date and I'm working on the rest (I just shipped a
- bunch of LhA V1.40's this morning). All who registered will receive their
- copy. I guarantee that. If anyone would prefer to get their keyfile via
- EMail + FTP instead of via SnailMail just mail me an EMail with
- `KEYFILE-REQUEST' in the subject line, and I will mail it to you ASAP.
-
- It would seem like mailing a couple of disks to a bunch of people is
- a simple task - and it sure is simple, but also quite time-consuming since
- I have to write everything by hand. Another reason for holding back is
- that I'd like to think I ship a bug-free product. Sometimes a bug appeared
- just before mailing 50 copies of that version and I had to copy the disks
- again, and rip up all envelopes, replace the disk and seal it again.
-
- The situation will be better as soon as I get the registration sites in
- Germany, USA and Australia up and running when LhA V2.00 is released. Then
- I can concentrate on developing instead of organizing.
-
- Regarding EMail - I try to answer all mail I get but sometimes my replies
- just bounce, and that is just what happened to the responses I've tried to
- write to Andreas Otte (who complained above). It has happened for some other
- persons as well. I generally answer EMail as quick as I possibly can, but
- sometimes I get far too much mail to be able to reply to all of them in
- reasonable time (I -do- have other things to do).
-
- Have patience. And if EMails don't seem to get through to me, try writing
- me an ordinary Snail-letter.
-
- Thank you,
- Stefan
