Comment to 'Warming up to UNA'
  • Just imagine what Dolphin could be now if all the energy into UNA had been put into Dolphin; and there would be a wide developer base building modules; or if you want to call them apps, call them apps.  Don't hold your breath waiting for a lot of Dolphin developers to come to UNA; they are looking at other platforms but just not UNA.  Andrew Boone caused too much distrust in the Dolphin community for them to feel comfortable coming to UNA.  You can't put on a dog and pony show and expect people to be OK with it; he only told a dozen different stories on Dolphin.  I was told by an Australian, a paying customer of Boonex, that he requested a conference with Andrew Boone and he did not have the common decency to respond.  He offered to travel to meet Mr. Boone so that Andrew would not be inconvenienced. Most of UNA is not new; they dusted off 10 year old code; it is why the studio is the horrible mess it is, it was coded 10 years ago.  We have tried to talk to Mr. Boone on acquiring Dolphin because Andrew has made it clear he is going to kill Dolphin.  Again, he ignores us as if we are lepers.  The Dolphin code base can be forked; for that we don't need permission.

    The short of it is that no Dolphin developers are coming, be happy with what Andrew feeds you.

      I do hope they come to UNA and develop their apps - I am waiting to buy.
