It is true that there haven’t been many ADVERTISED updates for MAS since 2005 and particularly true that the MAS promo site has not been updated recently. This doesn’t mean that the software itself has not been updated! All of our current MAS clients will confirm that every couple of months there have been minor features and improvements added into their standard release. At least twice a year there have also been major features developed and released, all into our current version and to the benefit of our client base.
While improving our live production line v.1.8 of MAS, with out a lot of press and fan-fare, we have been focused on developing the long anticipated version 2.0 of the product (featuring all that the latest v. 1.83 has plus more)! We’ve been saving up all of our bells and whistles press releases for the real deal and we admit this has been a reason for letting the promo site and the documentation lag behind.
But any customer who has asked for help or information, via support tickets or emails has always received it in full. No matter what the question, how to do anything, what recent features had been added, how best to use them and so on, our support staff has been responsive and helpful, and many times our support staff & webmasters have even completed the requested template jobs for free so that it is easier for the customer to see and learn from the completed example, always accompanied by thorough explanations.

The new major version release is on its way to be publicly announced at the very beginning of 2010.
And Brad, you can easily tell how short the "ages" of no updates has been by looking at the file modification dates of scripts within the MAS directories of the many MAS customers who host with MojoHost
But again I will say we honestly admit our fault for not updating the manuals and the promotional site as often as we should.
There is a lot of opinion in this thread that has me scratching my head. I know that we have tons of happy clients using MAS, so I guess it may just be a case of the squeaky wheel...
In any case we’re very excited about MAS 2.0 and I’m happy to discuss it with clients or potential clients at length so hit me up if you have questions. And of course, if you're having trouble with your MAS software PLEASE do feel free to contact me! It is my job to make it better.
