Thankee Melrick!
Actually, there is software being written. Manta2g is doing that, and has been for the last year. However, understand that it takes time to write a solid framework so that the software will work in the first place, bearing in mind that what we are both doing, is geared towards not only making the coding work and work in the current language versions; but WITHOUT data loss. That's an important factor, right there.
As far as the time this is taking, kindly remember that at any given time, I may have 3 people AT MOST helping me with it. Provided they are not having computer problems, or commitments in real life make it impossible for the assistance to be given. Now, we could maybe increase my 40 hour days....so I can be a zombie....or something...
