Found via Lifehacker.com this week a new site (http://alternativeto.net)that is user driven and provides ideas for alternative app's...so looked at their extry Win Expl and saw that XY wasn't listed a couple of days ago...then tried to create an acct on the site but had some issues and in meantime, another user had added XY so now I've just updated/added some info on existing entry at http://alternativeto.net/AlternativesTo ... m=software
The initial link for download pointed to a "unofficial" site so sent email to site owners last night and they fixed the entry to the proper value.
BTW, we need some more XY fans to join and make their selections as well, since other products seem to be getting more "favorites".

Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!

Software: should we be aware because it's soft ? I like to think not !

Re: XY on AlternativeTo.Net
The spelling is wrong: not "XYPlorer" but "XYplorer".
BTW, X and Y are neighboring keys on German keyboards, so it's very convenient to type "XY". Only in India I became aware that this is not the case in the rest of the world. Sorry for you!

Re: XY on AlternativeTo.Net
Ok folks...let's get a couple of more "likes" on this entry as we need to keep up with X2 at least...we've got 3 votes and likely can't beat TC but as it's in order by count, the higher we rank, the better, right?
