Xtreme Simplicity

Anybody know what happened to Jeremy Kothe and Xtreme Simplicity? I love their C# Refactory product, but evidently they are no longer issuing evaluation keys nor are they sending out keys that have been paid for.

They had "server trouble" and stopped sending out keys a while back. All their customers got ticked off and filed complaints with paypal, who apparently has suspended his paypal account. Most likely, he is busy with legal trouble now from all the people that they ticked off and trying to get paypal to reinstate their account. In any case, I always thought C# refactory was a piece of crap. JetBrains should be releasing a decent one soon. You can download a beta from their site.

Amen to that. Refactory was a buggy nightmare. JetBrains' ReSharper is in another league and it's only the first beta (although it has no Extract Method -yet-).

I have to disagree, I used refactory for nearly a year, and while there was a point release or 2 that had a few issues the 1.2 release worked well all the time.

After trying Resharper for a day I'm getting irritated with its modal preprocessing every time I load a project. Otherwise it is only good for renaming (so far).

I have to agree with Wayne.

I couldn't be more pleased with C# Refactory. Jet Brains is so far a disappointment to me. Maybe it is just all the hype they get from the Java world.

Yes, Xtreme Simplicity has had major problems with the purchase process. On behalf of Xtreme Simplicity I apologise to all who have been inconvenienced. These problems have now been solved and a dedicated person (me) appointed as sales manager and webmaster to ensure the process works and to deal with the backlog of disappointed people.

Our development and support of C# Refactory and other products has been reinvigorated and you can all look forward to improved features in the near future.
