BlueGriffon is not in repositories. Is it dead ? If so can you tell me about any alternative ?

1Last release was in 2013. Probably the project is dead, the software may work.– muruJul 13, 2015 at 19:49

I am actually using it (1.7.2 on 14.04). Looking at this: bluegriffon.org/post/2015/04/20/BlueGriffon-progress-20150420 it is still maintained, although the Linux version is a bit behind at the moment. Why not contact them: bluegriffon.org/pages/Contacts– Jacob VlijmJul 13, 2015 at 20:08

@JacobVlijm - thats probably a worthwhile answer :). I'm going to try and compile a new version and if that results in 1.7~ contact them and ask whether code is available for the 1.8, because i must of been using 1.7.2 for AGES....– WilfJul 13, 2015 at 22:18

Through the twitter feed found a slightly newer version is available for Ubuntu 14.04 from here. I am also guessing the available source code is for 1.7.3 so I think I may ask if the source for 1.8 is available...– WilfJul 13, 2015 at 22:36
