The founder(s) have moved on to Zecter.

The company's not dead. They just changed their name to Zecter. They're working on a new approach to some of the problems Versionate solves.

This is bad PR.

If it's not true, shouldn't it be deleted?

Stories that aren't 100% accurate are on YC fairly regularly; deleting just the inaccurate stories that affect YC companies would be quite unfair.

I would recommend taking the time to read the article. If you did read it you would find the entire post to be 100% accurate.

I actually need this sort of service in a major way, so I hope they keep going!

edit: i need the file sharing thing Zecter is advertising, not the wiki thing advertised by Versionate.

This is David from Versionate. We are not dead :)

I apologize for the lack of updates on the blog. We've been working hard to develop a new product that solves problems in similar space as Versionate called Zecter. It aims to make file sharing and collaboration simple, and directly from the desktop.

As for Versionate, we are still supporting it, and may integrate some of the features of Zecter back in the future.

Too bad, I've been hoping someone would come along and drive Confluence out of where I work. It is an "enterprise wiki", which is to say it adds tons of features that get in the way of work, but that management likes. It takes days of emails just to get all the permissions changed to allow someone to see a page you wrote.

Try Luminotes? It's not exactly an "enterprise wiki", but it certainly tries to avoid features that get in the way.
