Many of our key objectives (track-level metadata, UI localisation, artist/composer data, kinetic GUI, cross-platform clients) were too ambitious to be pursued as incremental changes to the existing codebase. So in 2010, following the release of 2.1, we started work on a ground-up rewrite of Sooloos.

That effort formed the basis of work we did over the ensuing years for Jaguar Land Rover and HP -- you'll find references to HP Connected Music elsewhere in the forums -- which had been prioritised at that point. Those projects have reached a kind of equilibrium, so over the last year we've put a great deal of design and development effort into what's next for Meridian Sooloos.

While we have been acutely aware of the deficiencies inherent in 2.1, our resources are limited, and making incremental improvements to an existing product while developing a new product in parallel would've been impossible. We made the choice to focus our efforts on the latter (however painful in the near term) and I'll be able to share some of that on the forums soon.
