FSNavigator goes freeware?

QUOTE:
"hello all

i am steel around but now have decided to move from fsnavigator onto good other things.

my time with navigator is been very good and i thanks you all for your wisdom and helping during the many years of programme building.

I can longer no more offer any assistance but i am leaving the programme to be downloaded free from next week onwards. there will be only the one registration code withing the download which will allow the programme to be used in full. Thank you all again and good best wishes for the future

Editor's Note:  FS2004.com could not reach the FSNavigator.com admin for comment, so this is an unconfirmed report.  It is our opinion that this is a prank, especially considering the originator's email address is @navigator.com rather than @fsnavigator.com.  Stay tuned for updates...

Update 10/20/04:  We have contacted Helge Schroeder and found that this was indeed a hoax.  Read comments for more details.

Just received word from Helge Schroeder himself (author of FSNavigator) that this news was indeed a hoax.  He was involved in a car accident and has been in the hospital for quite some time. :D

Good news though that FSNavigator will continue to be developed!
