Zoundry Raven - Open Source!

Hey everyone. I realize that we've been silent for quite some time now. Distractions at Zoundry (read "other projects") have pulled our attention away from Raven. The bad news is that we haven't been able to devote much of our development time to that project. We still try to handle support email and the forums as much as possible, but even on these fronts we don't do as good a job as we would like. This is unfortunate because we think that Raven is a good product and it could be so much better if only it had some constant attention being paid to it.

The good news is that, to this end, we have decided to release Raven as an open-source project. We're trying to bring on developers from the Raven community to help push Raven development forward. We (Zoundry) will continue to serve the following functions:

• Overall product direction/guidance
• Build and Release management (we will still be your official source for new builds)
• Email support, Forum support, Web Site hosting/management
• Evangelism (to the extent we have ever been capable of this)

Your takeaway from this should be that we are actively seeking developers to help usher in a new era of active Zoundry Raven development. If you are a developer interested in getting involved, please let us know via email (support@zoundry.com) or the Zoundry Raven Forum. Now is your chance to help make Raven even better than it already is!

Update: sadly I forgot to include the link to the Zoundry Raven Open Source project site.
