We’ve been getting a lot of questions in regards to our products and OS X Lion compatibility.
We are putting together a detailed page on the compatibility status of all our Mac OS X products. We hope to publish this page early next week.
In general, our products are working on Lion, with some issues. We’ll have updates for Daylite, Daylite Server, DMI, Billings, Billings Pro, Billings Pro Server that will address those compatibility issues. We expect to complete most of these updates by the end of July or sooner.
So rest assured that we’ll be ready very soon after Apple releases Lion, as we’ve always done in the past with major OS updates.
Until next time…

AJ,
Any more info on DMI beta program.
I requested to be included a few days ago but have not heard anything.

While I’m glad to hear about your progress on Lion, I’m still waiting for the sync with iCAL to get fixed.
I assume that Apple’s latest announcement regarding iCloud has some impact but you are doing us all a disservice by not discussing the future of your product WRT the Apple Calendar ecosystem.
I love what DMI does for me and am saddened that I had to disable iCal syncing.
AJ says:
@Jack. Asim will contact you. We are almost there.
AJ says:
@Mark. I understand your frustration, but we are no more privy to what Apple plans to do than the average person. We will monitor iCloud carefully and see what we can do to bring back that functionality. Right now we simply do not have enough information.

Harald says:
Aj,
you are having not enough information about iCal syncing and CalDav, ecc. ? We changed, as you recommended, to BusySync and Google-Calendar. That’s a workaround … not more.
But, why is daylite not ready for Lion before Lion’s Release will come, as the most of other common software?
And, why are so many other long known feature requests not coming, as you can see in many threads of your forums. We are convinced, that the most of the current daylite users, would pay with a smile for a cool update.
Maybe I’m not knowing the detailled technical problems. But I know that we are still hesitating to buy more Daylite licences, also we know this from many other people around us. There is no real cool crm/project tool out there, especially not with mail integration. But there are coming more and more cool Web-Applications to the market. So, I fear, some of us, will be forced to change to some other tool, soon.
I’m really sad about this, and many of us are strongly missing the coolness factor, which daylite had in former times. Also, we know, that e. g. offline syncing was given free to us, but without that function, we allready would have gone crazy.
AJ says:
@Harald. Systems like Daylite are complex with lots of underlying dependancies (SSL, background processes, Mail just to name a few). The more of these, the longer it takes. From past history, we are one of the fastest to adopt a new Apple OS as compared to other companies that have similarly complex software.
The best metaphor I can use to answer your other questions is: “good things come to those who wait”

Thanks for the updates. Can’t wait for 4.0
Peter says:
We are also waiting for a sync with ical…
And looking for an other solution if it takes to long …
Need absolutely an integration with ical / icloud for daylite
