Hi everybody,

it's the second time I've to say this and I'm sad about it:

_The project will be (temporary, but definitely for a longer time)
stopped and the support will be discontinued. The reasons are (again)
the lack of resources._

And with resources we do not mean web space or administrative
resources. The code base needs to be revamped and without
additional developers, not full time, but at least a fixed amount
of time per month, this isn't feasible in a reasonable time.

We would like to continue the project at some point in the future, but
without community help (developers in the first place) the restart might
take a very long time or might not happen at all.

WinPT 1.4.3 is the last release. It still can be downloaded from
winpt.gnupt.de. But it should be noted that the existence of the
site cannot be guaranteed any longer. But of course, it is always
possible to download older versions at the Wald development site.

As a result, I will close the list at the end of the month. I will
also add a hint on the project website about the new project status.

We thank all people for their trust and contributions.

Your WinPT team.
