He released the latest version of Pythonista more than one year ago.

Correct - and since the beta of the newer version expires later this month, will a final release or a new beta be available before then?

Anyone here has some kind of contact outside of the forum/twitter/slack with @omz? We really need him to update.

If anyone wants to send a message, they can try support@omz-software.com

@az I sent him many email with Gmail, iCloud and Outlook. No response at all. So I think we are just forgotten.

There are some great people in this world and the Pythonista developer has done an amazing job.

Many people have been trying to contact him, self included, but he's not responding.

BTW: Julian Assange was arrested a month ago and no-one has heard from him either!!!!

There are many great people around the world and Ole is one of them!
I was able to find some issues in the latest beta, has reported them in GitHub and Ole was able to fix many of them. It would be sad to go back to the App Store Version.

If we will see Julian the next time, this will be a great Showdown!

If anyone lives in Germany and wants to send him a snail-mail letter, he lists what seems to be a mailing address on his homepage: https://omz-software.com/

I note the beta has just been extended a few days. It’s back at 7 days in my TestFlight. Considering this thread is 7 days old, there’s 14 days right there. Unless this thread was started when there were 14 days left to begin with.

It's time to GG?

madivad

It’s not looking good. I still have my fingers crossed

3 days now

@lpl Please, be a little optimistic

madivad

I'm absolutely positive there is a problem :)

@madivad I agree there is a problem to contact @omz but there is not a lot of problems with the app it-self, and that is the most important, at least for me.
We can do so much with this app.

madivad

@cvp I have grown accustomed to running my apps in the cloud version (something that didn't work pre-beta), I don't mean to be a doomsdayer, but I fear the worst. @omz is no more. I am more than happy to be proven wrong.

cvp

@madivad I understand and I sincerely hope that you are wrong

If you need to run an iCloud script with the App Store version, you could try to run
this script, passing it as 1st argument, the folder/script_name.py. Other arguments may follow.
I've tested it with the beta because I don't have anymore the normal version.

#!python2
# force this script to use Python 2 Interpreter so you can start
# Python 3 Interpreter to run your iCloud script
from objc_util import *	
import sys
arg = sys.argv
# this script = arg[0]
script = arg[1]
path = '/private/var/mobile/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~com~omz-software~Pythonista3/Documents/' + script
arg = arg[2:]	# other arguments
I3=ObjCClass('PYK3Interpreter').sharedInterpreter()
# run a script like in wrench menu (path, args, reset env yes/no)
#print(path,script)
I3.runScriptAtPath_argv_resetEnvironment_(path, arg, True)

Perhaps it’s time to consider extracting the IPA and using Cydia Impactor to extend the validity of the beta.

Now time to say GG
