At this point I really don't mind what happens to Track Designer, I have zero time to spend on it. I'm basically going to open it up to the community and you guys can do whatever you want with the source, modify it, rewrite it, port it or put the (...)

It has been a few weeks now since the subject of track designer updates was brought up, has anything come out of it yet? Has anybody heard anything new from Matt about releasing the source code to individuals, sourceforge or whatever? Martin (23 years ago, 7-Apr-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad)
