Brendan reminded me with this post that I haven't updated anyone on the state of Easy Assets for a while.

Like Brendan, I'm pleased to report a goodly amount of downloads.  Also like Brendan I have received 0 code submissions from the community and have grossed $0 in donations.  Seems to me that the open source experiment is failing.

The repercussions?  Not much really, I'll probably get on converting it to .net 2.0 sometime in the next 6 months.  The main repercussion is that without community submissions and/or donations the priority of coding enhancements on Easy Assets is waaaaay down the list of things I have on my plate. 

*shrug*  It still feels good to have something out there, and it was a worthy experiment if only to prove that anything I build in the system will not be free open source.
