Hi,
I am new here a I don't know very well about future implementations on
PLua. Does it has any plan to suport Lua 5.1?
Thanks.

There are no plans to support Lua 5.1. Because of personal and
professional reasons, I do not do PalmOS development anymore.

Over the years I have received many requests to open Plua's source
code. But recently I also received some commercial offers to buy it,
and I am evaluating the options. I will keep you posted.

Regards,
Marcio.

It's not like you've had the source for Plua, and then had it taken
away.  It's not like you've had the binary for the Plua interpreter
for PalmOS, and will have it taken away.

This seems to be more about ensuring some sort of continued
development, rather than something being removed.  I see the potential
of continued support in a sustainable form as a very positive
development.

Good point Louis,
   But hard to evaluate before we see the price it would cost us and my
guess is that it won't worth buying it :(
   I would prefer to support Marcio and have Plua opening the code, so that
others could continue to support the code, upgrade to Lua 5.1 and so on.

Best
Dado

That's it Dado. You and Marcio have my support to keep it on PalmOS.
