What is up with K2 for Wordpress?
If you have no idea what K2 is you can read more about it here but in a nut shell its an advanced template for the Wordpress blogging engine that uses slick Ajax effects and other cool things. I hope that the project hasn’t went under because I think it has a lot of potential in the Wordpress scene and if I’m not mistaken many people are running this template on their own Wordpress blog.
So whats going on with k2? I mean up until recently it seemed that the K2 development team was always eager to release a stable version of K2, frequently updating their website (www.getk2.com) with several Release Candidates. Their last website posting was over 4 months ago and its for the release of RC3 (release candidate 3). I decided I was going to design a custom K2 style so I went to their downloads section to get a fresh install of K2 and I noticed the latest available version is Release Candidate 4. So they never wrote an official release for the latest version on their home page, which I figured would be coming soon, but now it’s been a few weeks and still no post. Obviously that is not a big deal but in addition to their website not being updated their Support Forums are like a ghost town. I posted my style their in hopes to get some of the K2 community to check it out, maybe give me some feedback or report any bugs but I don’t believe that I got a single hit from the forums. I’m also noticing other members posting threads in forums other than the Customization/Styles forum that are not getting any support or reply to their threads.
I hope that the dev team keep up their good work and haven’t thrown in the towel just yet.
