Nothing new in the web. In short they're only rumors that's often just fake news it happens don't worry about it mate ask yourself if he'd really died why hide it ?

They form a team that will continue the project. That's it. The boss has left. How much clearer to understand that the program has been abandoned, even temporarily? The leader doesn't exist for me.

No one is immune to a return. We're talking about an accident here. And that's not intended, obviously. The only consolation is that there is someone to continue the project. But it will hardly be like before. No Boss, no IDM. Only students around. FaeGiN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DesertFox1 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 IDM is not run by one person, it's owned by a large corporation (Tonec). Even if this rumor is true, they will carry on. FaeGiN and RobrPatty 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is quite possible that for given program works only one person and the rest are his assistants who do not have the knowledge of the source code in module or the whole program. So far they have given suggestions or applied some of their little knowledge. They have yet to explore what he bequeathed to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DesertFox1 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 No, it most certainly does NOT need an update every day or even every 3-6 months. What is wrong with you?

DesertFox1 Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 (edited) Many, if not most, of these updates (actually "builds") had little relative importance to actually downloading files ... the program's primary function. They had more to do with attempts to keep pirates from using the program. I went several years using the same version before it was actually necessary to update because the program no longer functioned. Some people get too caught up it what they think is "truth", than actually knowing what the truth is.

Administrator Popular Post DKT27 Posted September 21, 2022 Administrator Popular Post Share Posted September 21, 2022 Please do not fight each and please be respectful. Remember we are a forum community, let us not get angry over each other for such small things. Needless fight over something which has been clarified is not required. The email shows that it came from the main developer himself. His name is written inside that email. My knowledge tells me that main developer alone develops the software but I could be wrong. Also let us be realistic. It does not need regular updates. The only reason it might not have updated recently is because the developer wants the fix makers to have some extra time fixing other software. Most of the updates of this software has no specfic changes other than to break fixes. Eitherway, to prevent further arguments, I am locking the topic. If you guys feel that it still not updated many months later and it requires a new discussion - again discussion, not argument, then please wait a few months and start a new topic about it.
