News / Status
(Updated 2nd April, 2013)
PFPX is virtually complete now with some minor adjustments to be done. The last part is doing a complete documentation.
This shouldn't treally take too long.
The project has taken considerable more time to complete than expected and Christmas has passed quite some time ago.
I fully understand that some of you are not willing to wait any longer.
We are doing our best to finish within a reasonable time frame.
