RELEASE DATE UPDATE

In previous posts we unnecessarily and unknowingly set false expectations for the release of the new version of OmmWriter. We would like to apologize for the delay. The reason for the delay is due to technical problems we ran into with some new backgrounds images, namely Chromatherapy. We have been working together with a chromatherapy expert to develop two new backgrounds: one to promote a tranquil state of being, and the other to promote creativity. Both backgrounds adopt the use of specific color gamuts that subtly transition in the background. However, programming this to perfection has not been as easy as we first thought. The good news is that Ommwriter is almost out of QA now.

So in response to many requests we are now wary of publishing a release date, but believe that we should communicate a tentative one. If all goes well, we hope to release early-September, maybe slightly earlier if possible. Thanks again for your patience in the meantime.

    I’m pained about going the entire, sweltering, leaden NY Summer without the new release. Upon hearing the news, my Dow Jones dropped 100 points, and now I have a jones. But… grateful I remain. Patience is a virtue worth keeping up to date, so… I wait. However, if you need an experienced alpha or beta tester, I was ready yesterday. If you’d take my first-born son in trade for an advance peek, that would work, too.
    Mazel tov. Warmly, Evan.
