KIndlean is a ripoff of ixtab's Collections Manager hack for the Kindle. Only it doesn't get updated until (way?) after ixtab NiLuJe and the gang has released the CM updates, and then it shamelessly takes their work and sells it.

I think NiLuJe is right that they are gone now, so they will never say get updated with a brand-new patch submitted yesterday that should add FW 5.4.3.2 support. Although it reportedly has some PW support. Still, why pay for freely contributed software?

On the CM link, there are instructions for installing a plugin into calibre for managing collections from calibre (based on metadata and stuff ) and importing to CM.

Side note: Using the WTFPL is kind of asking to get your work ripped off. The GPL or similar allows anyone to do whatever they want -- assuming attribution is used, and forbidding resale of your work. The license chosen is kinda meant specifically to allow ripoffs.

Sorry! *runs for cover*
