I see, the major problem is the maintenance involved.
For instance,
If Amazon introduces a new model before NiLuJe returns, then we are going to have problems.
I do not think anyone has NiLuJe's build system duplicated to maintain the snapshot packages.
Although the key component of that, KindleTool, is in a public repository. That is the "must maintain" component of every package.
The introduction by Amazon of their next model will probably mark the end of this forum's usefulness. (Which only Alex will notice when his ad revenue takes a nose dive.)
With NiLuJe gone this forum is down to zero moderators.
And the single helpdesk regular (the other helpdesk helpers are gone) is running out of time to answer questions.
It may be close to the time for off-site, paid, Kindle support.
