Talk:Hotline Communications

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hotline Communications has had a peer review by Wikipedia editors which is now archived. It may contain ideas you can use to improve this article.

"In September 2001, Hotline Communications announced development of version 2.0 of the Hotline suite had been stopped, beta versions of which had not been well received by the community, and laid off most of its employees. In mid-October of the same year, the company announced the re-hire of their engineering team "in anticipation of the release of Hotline 2.0" on their website (http://www.bigredh.com/ - offline as of April 2005). However, no stable build of Hotline 2.0 was ever released."

Note that this is what happened according to the press releases. Hotline laid off all of its staff, with the exception of a few executives left to clean up the intellectual property and business affairs of the company in preparation for sale. The rehire of the engineering team consisted of three or four members of the former team.

I'm just not sure how to word this to be non-biased.
