Re:Future of Rax and Wormhole2 - 2007/02/10 22:48
Wormhole should not die. With a bit of effort, decent support, expanded features, more reliable operation and better network transparency in operation, possible network MIDI spport as well, and the product would kill - it's only competitors are strictly single-platform (FXTeleport for PC, Apple's AUNetSend for Macs).
There is a very real need for this software, so don't let it die.
I don't care whether it's sold on to another company to develop as a commercial product, or open-sourced, as long as who-ever continues to develop it does so with desire and passion to provide a great cross-platform audio network software.
Under Plasq it was sadly neglected, both in development and support imho, which was a huge shame.
I'd say, see if you can find a development team who have the desire and resource to take it on properly first and foremost. If that doesn't come to fruition, then open-source would be a nice way to give back to the community.
