Message: <blockquote data-quote="Henry" data-source="post: 723715" data-attributes="member: 158">The reason for "that horrible" Java is that PCGen is intentionally a cross-platform application. You can use it on Windows/Mac OS/Linux/Unix/ Any operating system that can run Java programs.Also, just because the coders in question work in Java does not mean they have no experience in C; most skilled coders nowadays have proficiency with several languages.I do not know personally, but I am working on the assumption that the coders in charge of this project have been looking at the source code for E-Tools longer than we've known aout this deal. Why do I say this? Because they stated publically that they offered WotC a "confident" estimate of 90 days for the patch of the specific issues in queestion. This means they have been looking at the code long enough to make an estimate.In their statement at <a href="http://www.codemonkeypublishing.com" target="_blank">www.codemonkeypublishing.com</a> , their list of changes are not mod changes; they are actual code fixes they are looking at.I agree here - anyone who feels they can make a better contribution, so be it - but such contribution needs to be legal. Right now, it is the IMPROVEMENT of their product over time that is causing the unrest, and I for one find that tremendously ironic. Very few people have expressed any desire to get the non-SRD material for free; more however, are concerned with the possibility that the LST material will become unusable inside of a year.</blockquote>
