<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">The Mark Twain quote is most appropriate. Thank you Chris. Our group rarely participates in these forums, but I felt some response to this somewhat annoying rumor was needed.
Some of the discussion also brings to mind another familiar proverb: a bad workman always blames his tools. But also I am reminded that, if all you have is a hammer everything looks like a nail. So I add to the “</span><span style="color:black">controversy”
here.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">eQUEST and DOE-2 are alive and well and our combined development efforts are at an equal or higher funding and effort level than ever before. However, we will continue to provide
all our DOE-2 and eQUEST products as freeware to the simulation communities around the world. We support the overall community activities so that the community can offer analysis and support services to derive income based upon use of our products.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">We tend not to compete with the community by offering those same analyses and support services ourselves with the exception of providing eQUEST and DOE-2 training. Thus we as
a group do not normally offer fee based support services except to a small group of our long-term clients who also generally support our development efforts – we leave those fee based support service opportunities to you, the user community, as an income source.
</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">With thousands of eQUEST and DOE-2 installation around the world, we receive too many emails per day to possibly respond. We especially cannot respond to standard support requests
as that request should be directed to those offering fee based support services. We try to pay attention and examine requests when program bugs or errors are suspected. But quite often we need to delay any fixes to the next program release. Our focus on DOE-2.3
and program develop environment changes for both eQUEST and DOE-2 has slowed our releases for the past two years. That will change this year, so be patient please.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">We do not develop eQUEST or DOE-2 using a license fee income based model. Rather we develop our tools to support the analysis needs of our major clients and the general user community.
We have no plans to change our model. Like all software, eQUEST and DOE-2 will have quirks, bugs and limitations. No realistic or truthful company offering software could claim otherwise. However, we plan to continue making improvements and have the resources
to do so.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">What is coming? Several things are coming in the next year. DOE-2.3 has been in beta for some time. We will release that new version when we are confident it can be used in production
work in place of DOE-2.2. A version of eQUEST that fully supports DOE-2.3 that will be released at the same time. DOE-2.2 is also still under development, but we tend to implement all major new features in DOE-2.3 rather than DOE-2.2. We expect to release
an update to both eQUEST and DOE-2.2 soon with DOE-2.3 and its eQUEST version later. The DOE-2.2 refrigeration version development continues, however more priority has been placed on DOE-2.3 recently; however, we will also release an update to that application
as well and we consider that version an important product to continue to upgrade well into the future.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">I am not sure why rumors of the impending death of DOE-2, that started in the late 1990’s, continue to persist since the evidence for the past fifteen years should have proven
those rumors wrong. Similarly, the rumors about the death of eQUEST that have appeared more recently can be also similarly be ignored as completely false. The real history shows that our DOE-2 and eQUEST products have proven to have more funding and longevity
“legs’ than any other existing similar software. While other development groups struggle to advance one simulation program or one user interface we have shown that our group can do both the engine and interface with major advances to both for decades and as
freeware. I see no change coming in our ability to continue the upgrade of both in the current decade.
</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">You should, as a community, be more concerned with the long term viability of other groups making big claims that have a long way to go before they can claim to be offering the
simulation community the mature, stable, reliable capabilities free as you get from our products. It is much easier for a developer to claim their product can do amazing things than it is for the user community to realize those possible gains while maintaining
the ability to deliver services to their clients competitively in a timely manner. We plan to do our best to continue to offer you products that allow you to perform your job or earn a living, and keep your clients satisfied. In return we ask for your continued
support, patience and generally good vibes. We also ask that you continue to support one another in this and other forums, as the freeware nature of our products requires the user community to hang together and exchange information and ideas.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>

never got a response, and after that as well as after much research showed there is no DOE funding, or sales revenue to fund the eQuest project assumed that the project is "dead"....If I am wrong, someone from the eQuest development team please respond to my
questions?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Jeff,<br>
I am working on a LEED compliance building model in eQUEST, and have to ask you a question. So I created a building that has zero insulation, standard lighting watts/sqft and ran the compliance analysis. The building that is not at code energy costs are in
the sixty thousand range, and the 0,90,180,270 average that should be at code is in the ninty thousand range.This %30 savings for the building that has zero insulation over the building that has been auto generated to be complaint with ASHRAE/LEED shows that
for some reason the building that is not at code (zero insulation) uses 30% less then the building that is suppose to be at code, and I am sure that the software is wrong.<br>
<br>
Now I have read the PDF published on the subject, and am very curios if the<br>
compliance analysis tool is something that you believe to work correctly?<br>
(I would be happy to find out I made some error, but can not find any such<br>
errors on my part, and someone told me that the tool does not work so I<br>
doubt it is error on my part)<br>

The eQuest project is dead, anything that is current<br>
is what<br>
there is, and there is not more development going<br>
into the<br>
code. There many are issues, and no support other<br>
then this<br>
list. To use eQuest you must be comfortable with<br>
developing<br>
workflows to work around issues you may come across.<br>
CanQuest will never be finished, so don't hold your<br>
breath,<br>
also do not use the compliance tools if you expect<br>
to create<br>
a compliant building, as they do not work.<br>
<br>
You could allwees use a spreadsheet to convert, but<br>
the text<br>
files are very time consuming to convert to spreadsheet.<br>

Hi Maria Elena,____<br>
<br>
__ __<br>
<br>
<br>
eQuest doesn’t have metric units available yet,<br>
though<br>
that’s one of the major features the Canadian<br>
version<br>
(called CanQuest) that is under development will<br>
add.<br>
It has been “soon to be released” for a couple<br>
of years<br>
now, though, so I would get used to manual unit<br>
conversions for the moment.____<br>
