CompuSol established in 1986 was an official reseller of EccoPro under
Arabesque and later NetManage. CompuSol continued to support its EccoPro
user base after NetManage abandoned the software and discontinued
development at the end of 1997. Shortly thereafter in 1999 the
owner/moderator Tom Hoots at the EccoPro forum at Compuserve established
a new tech support group at Yahoo under the name "eccopro"
<http://www.compusol.org/ecco/EccoproYahooGroup.pdf>. At that time the
original Yahoo user group "eccopro" and CompuSol had the official
original Ecco Pro download available online per FTP linked to NetManage,
see http://coolthingoftheday.blogspot.com
<http://coolthingoftheday.blogspot.com/2005/06/ecco-pro-free-download.html>
and http://jkontherun.com
<http://jkontherun.com/2004/11/18/memory_lane_ecc/>.

For notes regarding the free use of EccoPro in a network environment see
also the license agreement discussion and email exchange between
CompuSol and NetManage of April 2004 at
http://www.compusol.org/ecco/netmanage.html. Two years earlier on
08/27/2002, after several interruptions of NetManage's free FTP
downloads, NetManage allowed CompuSol to distribute a free zipped
version of the last original installation dated 8/27/1997. This version
is still free available at http://www.compusol.org/ecco/401e32.zip. In
2008 NetManage was acquired by Micro Focus International, a British
company based in Newbury, Berkshire. Micro Focus did not retain
ownership of EccoPro and has no interest to renew the development of
EccoPro. The last License agreement of 1997 still points to NetManage.

As of February 2012 CompuSol has renewed the contact to Zvi Alon, ex-CEO
of NetManage.

Friedhelm! Thank you for your personal, ongoing commitment to
EccoPro. You and Pastor Bob have certainly done a lot to make
the software that "outlook should have been" keep working for
us.



KUDOS!
