I just noticed that nothing has happened on the Moray homepage for a 
couple of months. I suppose there is a very good reason for this (Moray 
3.5 development, a 'real' job..etc.) How's it going Lutz?

Hi Jakob Tendel, you recently wrote in moray.win:

Yes, I have not been able to work on Moray at all in the last few
months. The registrations are far too few to support me (let alone my
partner) and so we currently need to do fulltime contracting work. We
plan to continue Moray development soon to make the changes neccessary
for POV 3.5 and when that happens the website wil be updated again.

Regards,

- Lutz

Do you mind telling us how many people registered the latest version?
