In another thread related to SoftPedia (http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic. ... 92#p42692),
I posted and Don replied:

So...this morning I decided to email using the addresses found on that staff page...here's what I wrote (to four of those ppl):j_c_hallgren wrote:These folks don't look like robots to me: http://www.techspot.com/staff.shtml and the related forums are active (somewhat) http://www.techspot.com/vb/
And now, less than 3 hrs later, I got this reply from julio@techspot.com:Hi all!
Yes, I'm sending to multiple staff cause I'm not sure who may respond...
Found your site yesterday...and noticed that my favorite software is VERY outdated:
http://www.techspot.com/downloads/4852-xyplorer.html
It's showing vers 8.00 but it's now up to vers 8.80 as can be seen at http://www.xyplorer.com/download.htm
and here's the PAD http://www.xyplorer.com/XYplorer-PAD.xml
Can someone please update this? Thanks!
FYI: I'm a active supporter of XY and maintain http://xyplorer.blogspot.com/
It’s done. Thanks for the note.

"8.80 is a free upgrade for all users owning a Lifetime License, and for users owning a Standard License for 7.90 or later. The download is good for the Pro Edition and for the Home Edition."
See? They DID respond! And you thought they were robots...

Thanks MUCH to Julio for the prompt action to my request! Now I just hope we don't have to notify them monthly or so when XY gets a new "Official Release"...
