Congratulations Disa community!
You've officially hit 1 million downloads across the globe, across multiple app stores, you've broken all the norms and have become a very serious community. We started small as the "Disa Project" fuelled by a small group of awesome supporters, and now we're proud to inform you that as of last week we've officially become Disa Technologies, Inc.
Why is Disa still in Beta?
Well, to many this seems like a well polished framework that only needs UI improvements, but to us is just a test of a framework that is less than half of our intentions. We have built the framework to include so much much more but we can't reveal to you what those innovations are yet because it would tip off the competition on things we've blueprinted that have never been done before. The framework was purposely built at this point to be ready for these new features to be included thus completing what Disa really is. "A Technology beyond messaging". When it reaches that point on the next year, we will take Disa out of beta and into full production for the world to experience the masterpiece you've all fueled with excitement, community support, and viral marketing. Please continue to spread the word about Disa. Every new tester we have helps us to perfect the project
What's going on? Tell me about what Disa is up to?
Telegram is in fact almost at the alpha testing stage. However we've diluted our workload a bit more to expand Disa. To do so we've had to officially become a company, sign over our IP and patent protections, begin the process of investment funding, and movement towards creating a headquarters for a larger development team we have to put together.
With all these responsibilities, the team and I have a lot on our plates until Q1 2016. We will no doubt continue to make maintenance updates through the year regardless with a fun feature full update coming this month.
You should be very happy we've hit 1 million beta test downloads in less than a year, created a company, signed the top law firm in the tech industry (WSGR which was responsible for taking Google's IPO public), and received tons of investor interest to begin 2016 with a larger development team. This is necessary because we have blueprints for some monster innovations that will take Disa well beyond expectations and we need more help to both handle the influx of user interest and developing for the future. We simply just need more hands on deck now. Our growth is spreading insanely fast for a beta test.
In 2016 we will push out fantastic new features with a new team. This means better quality work and more cohesiveness with an easier to use UI. We will pump out a new service plugin, introduce a new mind blowing feature that will be exclusive to Disa users only, implement more material design, knock off more features from the community request list, and introduce a new innovation that will be our golden goose for the 2016 year leading to an iOS Disa build.
Thank you all for your support. You are a community the world should listen to for the future. You come with great ideas, suggestions, and you fuel our tanks with comments and support that makes us want to work harder and harder every day. We've stopped school, spent our own savings, sacrificed socializing at times, and put in many hours through the deep hours of the nights into the next morning getting Disa to where it is now.
We look forward to the future together with you!
