Am testing EO WebBrowser with .NET for use in a project. Looks promising, but seems to be a little dated. First site I used for testing was google mail and see the message "This version of Chrome is no longer supported. Please upgrade to a supported browser.". This makes me suspicious that this software (like several other competitive products) are developed but then not maintained as the browser engines are updated. At $500 for a license I feel like this software should be up to date with the latest shipping web engine. I'm not looking for nightly builds, but a few weeks (if not sooner) after Chrome is updated, I would expect this software to be using the current engine. Can you provide any assurance that you will be providing regular updates?
Thanks...

Hi,
EO.WebBrowser is indeed being very actively developed and supported. We will have a new release this week that is based on Chrome V41 (the current version is based on Chrome V33). We won't have nightly build or weekly build updates though since we actually need to modify Chrome's code extensively in order seamlessly integrate it with .NET. So it's not a simple pull and rebuild. Our goal is stay within a few month with the current Chrome version.
Thanks!
