Who’s Going To Take Over Galleon?

If you’re at all like me, then you are a little disappointed from last week’s news that the development of Galleon is going to slow down. One of the great things about Galleon is that it is open source so if somebody wants to step up and continue development they can. I’d hate to see [...]
