This afternoon I was able to speak with Elliott Frutkin for over an hour, and was able to get some questions answered however other ones he was unable to answer.

First and formost TimeTrax is no more and Elliott is no longer part of TimeTrax.

With that said TimeTrax continues to function and will continue to function. Elliott and I talked about what this means for TimeTrax users and he said things would work as they do now however he did say there were some ideas on the table which could possibly mean new life of TimeTrax.

Here are the ideas on the table

1) Continue to run the TimeTrax registration servers as they are now.
2) Allow SatelliteGuys (or another party) run the registration servers
3) Release a patch would would keep TimeTrax from looking for a registration server
4) Release a new freeware version
5) Make TimeTrax a Open Source software

I personally would love to see option 5, as TimeTrax had so much potential and it was never fully developed to it's full potential. It could have had a nice graphical interface. (Thats my feeling)

With that said though Elliott feels that it would be best if it was rewritten from the ground up and not written in visual basic (which the current software was written in)

I asked Elliott why the TimeTraxTech homepage was now pointing to the XM Homepage and he said that he was not permitted to talk about it, but then later said he had no idea why "they" did some of the things they did last week.

We then talked about my decission to keep this forum open and he agreed with me that it was the proper thing to do and thanked me for keeping it open.

He said that because TimeTrax is no longer officially supported, it is important for a forum like this to exist so that users could help users with the product so that everyone could continue to enjoy TimeTrax for years to come.

We then talked about the posts made here over the last week and he said he had no problem with any of it except for one post in saying that TimeTrax was spyware. He was offended by that notion and wanted to clear the air that TimeTrax is not Spyware and contains no spyware.

I told him that we here at SatelliteGuys will do what we can to make sure TimeTrax continues running for all, and he sounded sincere when he said he appreciated the offer and its in serious consideration.

Lastly he wanted to point out again that your TimeTrax will continue to work today and into the future.

As this all works itself out I am expecting a statement from Elliot in the near future. I do thank Elliott for spending so much time with me on the phone today and while not all my questions were answered we at least know something that is going on. I look forward to Elliotts statement.
