new-comers may not recognize her name but she's a fixture on these forums. iirc, she lives in northern british columbia. i went to check for a midi file and it looks like she may have closed her wonderful site. does anyone have any details? is she well? i know that she had a period of ill health about a year ago. she's usually a beta tester. was she involved in testing 2012? alannah, please check in. you are dearly loved.

She's still kickin', Allanah participated again with the recent Beta testing of BiaB. And, as usual, submitted her customary very prolific and useful test results. She's a bugfinder. Very thorough IMO.

I think she's not getting into the open forums much anymore, there was some of that forum hashing/slashing awhile back that she did not appreciate and she said she was not going to participate anymore - and she hasn't.

But, judging by her beta test participation, I think I can safely say that Allanah is doing fine. She's still kickin' it.

seeker, thank you. i had tracked her that far through the biab yahoo group but she had literally 1000s of midi files also. i remember that fellow biab user, bob leaman had sent her a dvd of midi files that were all beautifully cataloged. the best, most complete midi file compilation i have ever seen. it was cross-indexed several ways making it very easy to search. she also had a nice assortment of music-related tools and her own wonderful hunkavr (squeezebox) tunes.

mac, thanks for the update. glad to hear she's well.

Quite a few years ago, we had PM's a few times. I believe she lives on Vancouver Island near/in a community called Cobble Hill - about a 3/4 hour drive from here (Victoria).

Used to have her address, and once located it on Google Earth. Just type in Cobble Hill BC.

Allanah was indeed participating in beta on the recent release (as usual), and is still very active helping out. As Mac said, she went thru a tough time and has not returned.
I also miss her and wish her well.
I don't think the health issues were with her, but with her husband. I could be wrong. Either way she has been a significant contributor to BiaB and its users over the years.
I'd like to publicly thank her for that.

Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Glad to hear that she is ok. I too accessed some of her prodigious files and made use of some of the files listed there. My thanks and appreciation for the time, effort, and hard work she did in compiling them.DennisD
