It has been a while since you last heard from me, but I am glad to give a quick update on the OutlineEdit project (http://outlineedit.com).
The State of the Union
For different reasons there was not as much visible progress as I had wished for recently. With OutlineEdit 1.5 released late in September and 1.6 on its way to the finish line, there is still a lot to do and my list of small and bigger features to add seems endless. Expect evolutionary changes in the future, but OutlineEdit 1 will not be extended conceptually.
Also, the OutlineEdit Beta Programm will come back in a different form since it was hard to organize feedback in its current state.
The Elephant in the Room
Yes, OutlineEdit 2 exists and its great - but far from finished. As I announced last December, once released it will be a free update to all OutlineEdit 1.x users. It’s coming, but not this year. Expect it in early to mid 2016.
The second Elephant in the Room
Yes, of course, an iOS adaption of OutlineEdit would be great. OutlineEdit 2 for Mac has the chance to put everything necessary in place - just saying. This does not mean it is a sure thing, but at least a little more likely.
I hope that you are still interested in OutlineEdit - and I think there are some exciting things to be released soon and in the longer term.
As always, let me know your thoughts.

Thank you, Robin. It’s generous of you to post an update on your plans. Good work takes time—great software takes even longer ;-)

I used OutlineEdit to take notes in a client meeting just last week, and drew some interested comments.
So yes, do keep up the good work. And laying the groundwork for a great iOS version now is a good investment for the future.
