I'm a bit concerned about the future of NoteFrog. The last update was almost a year ago, and the forum seems to have gone.

I had an email from Berry on 2014-04-27 where he mentioned the next version:
NoteFrog 3, which will ultimately include encrypted databases and HTML datatype is underdevelopment, targeted for early 2015.

He also said that the Forum was taken off the air as it was getting spammed.-IainB (May 18, 2014, 09:10 AM)

Actually, that is the 2nd thing I look at when selecting a program:
- when was the last update (anything older than 2012, i'll skip)
- what was the last update (if the update is just adding a language-pack, I will not take that date as last one, but rather take the one where at least a few new things were added)
- updates, are they on a regular basis or just once a year
- how to get support: only simple a mail on a support page, nothing more, or forum, email support, etc.
- what is the update / upgrade policy - what are the costs ( I hate 'subscriptions', if at all it is necessary, then it should allow me to pay once a year and get some reduction, get a year but pay for 11 months, but actually I don't have subscription-software until now. oh except renewal of antivirus software)

IainB:
^^ Yes. I now use very similar criteria for evaluating "currency" of software, having been disappointed a few times in the past.
I do think NoteFrog could be a bit better in that regard, but on the other hand, during ß testing and as a voluntary ß tester, I have found Berry to be fully committed to improving the software.
It may be that he is operating under some constraints of which we would not be aware.

I wondered if NoteFrog were a sideline, and he was spending time (perforce) on money-making projects. I doubt whether NF would keep him in coffee, let alone a living.
