A Personal Message From Lilac's Maintainer

I want to thank all the users of Lilac for using it. It's amazing to see how far this project has reached in its user base. As of right now, development is on a temporary hiatus. Due to real life getting in the way, I've had to focus all my energy on projects which produce revenue. Unfortunately, Lilac has not fallen in that category lately. If you or your company would like to sponsor development of bugfixes or even a full version update, please contact me at tdondich@gmail.com. I would even like to advertise your support on Lilac's webpage (which is viewed by users internationally).

Thank you for your understanding,
Taylor Dondich
