3.14 release?

[shawnkhall]

Good evening,

3.14 has been in beta now over a year and is supposed to resolve the SimpleNote sync issues. Beta1 is supposed to fix it (per the announcement post) but hasn't worked for me. Will there be an official release that resolves SN support anytime soon?

Thanks!

Hi and thanks for the question!

Well the answer is not that simple. The problem is, the issue that you're talking about is the result of Simplenote throttling CintaNotes because a bug in it caused high load on their servers in the past. So the issues won't go away after the release, because they won't remove the traffic limit just because a fixed version came out - there still are a lot of older versions of CN out there, and not everyone will update immediately. Unfortunately they haven't replied to my mails, and all in all it seems that they are limiting 3rd-party client support (they took down the public API from their site). So I guess CN will have to start supporting other notetaking platforms for sync.

Anyhow, I do plan to release an update before New Year, and try to negotiate with Simplenote relieving the traffic ban for this newer version. But I can't guarantee that they agree.

Hi Alex,

Is 3.14 ever going to come out of beta?

I paid for a lifetime license, but I'd be willing to pay again (and I bet some other users also would) to help you, if development could start again.

I rely heavily on CN, and it still works fine for me, but I'm worried I may have to switch to some other program if the program isn't updated to keep up, at least, with new versions of the OS.

Hi Riccardo,

Sorry that I left the forum without attention for some time..
Indeed due to some external factors I had to slow down CN development - both 3.x and 4.x,
but good news is that now I'm getting back to it and plan to stick to it.

I truly appreciate your offer to help, but there's no real need to pay anything extra.
Indeed it's been to long without any update. Currently I plan to release 3.14 by the end of August.

Speaking of V4, things are more complicated there since it still will take a lot of work to cover
all the required features.
But hope is not lost please stay tuned
