Thank-you.
Hi, yep it's July and my vacation's over (could have lasted longer). Work on Siilihai will resume. There are also some commercial possibilities planned but don't worry, it'll stay open source & free.
As this is still a hobby project, I can't give any release date for next version.

So you plan to maybe charge for it eventually?
If it's well put together I personally have no problem with that at all.
Especially if it's going to motivate you to spend more time on it.

So no very rough time-frame as to when the next major release is?
Will it be a MAJOR overhaul?
Can you at least give us an idea of the stuff you plan to fix/implement?

Thank-you.

No, i think the client should be free & open source. I might put a "Donate" link on the page some day if you want to motivate me.

Ok, my priorities currently are:

- Get the architecture changes related to sharing code between desktop & mobile clients finished & tested. This is what i'm currently working on.
- Fix remaining bugs in mobile client and test it properly.
- Optimize the sync protocol between client & server to make startup faster. Currently it's way too slow on 3g connection.
- Add support for TapaTalk and other forum protocols.

Probably the last step will be so large update that it could be called 'major overhaul' and worth upgrading version number to 2.0.

@vranki thanks for the clarification.
Obviously still no time-lines, hopefully this year some time!

All the best.

Didn't notice there is a new version until now. After quick testing, I can now subscribe to a forum but not its threads. Will there be possibility of using it as a forum browser only? I mean without subscribing to threads. Perhaps this one could be of help in creating the UI:

Still in work queue. I'm now optimizing the sync process to make it faster.

Siilihai can subscribe to groups only, not single threads.. Just like news readers do. I don't think subscribing only to selected threads would be very useful.
