The Official Cache Out X Announcement

02/07/2008 Site 1 Comment

I’m very pleased and excited to be able to finally announce publicly that development of Cache Out X has been taken over by Christopher Thompson of TriLateral Systems.

Christopher has already hit the ground running with a new public beta which fixes some outstanding Tiger and Leopard related issues in the software. In addition to that, he’s taken over full hosting of all released versions for OS X versions 10.2 through 10.4 and beyond. You can consider him the goto guy for all things Cache Out X now.

As part of the hand off, Christopher was kind enough to outline his road map for COX over the next few months. I can honestly say that both Tom Neveu of NoName Scriptware (Cache Out X’s original papa) and I are excited to see what he has in store for the application.

So with this official passing of the torch, I’d like to extend a huge thanks to Christopher for being the guy to step in and keep the dev fire burning, to Tom Neveu for allowing me to take over COX to begin with, and to all the users who’ve been so supportive along the way.

Join me in wishing Christopher all the best as he breathes new life into Cache Out X.

Cache Out X Finds a New Home

01/17/2008 Ramblings No Comments

I’ve been trying to hold off on this announcement for a while now in an effort to not steal too much thunder when the time came for the big announcement. But since I keep getting asked “When the heck is Cache Out X going to be updated?”, I have to say something.

The truth is, I just don’t have enough time to develop two applications in tandem, so I decided to put a call out for anyone interested in taking over development of the COX. I’m very happy to say that a very dedicated individual answered that call, and is working diligently as I write this blog post on getting a new version of the application out to the masses.

I won’t say who it is quite yet, because I don’t want everyone to start harassing him with “Where is it?” emails while he’s working so hard on it (not to mention that thunder thing). One thing is true: This person has a long-term plan for Cache Out X. Probably one far better than I would have come up with. Heck, his work might even eclipse mine on Yasu if I don’t get my kiester in gear real soon.

So there it is. Yes, Cache Out X is close to release. Once the day comes, I’ll post an announcement here with all the juicy details, and everything else that goes with passing the torch.
