I would also like to see Panini-Pro and Panini-Video updated. But I don't have the time or money to do that.
Andrew Hazelden has suggested that I could be paid something to convert them to open source projects so that others can continue the development.
That is a very nice idea, and I would be willing to do it for $1500 -- I estimate it would take me 2-3 weeks full time.
So if any of you guys want to organize or contribute to that fund, let me or Andrew know.
