The problem with Headway is they took a great product, meant to bring "development" to the masses, and made it very unintuitive when they released 3.0.

Perhaps the licensing model they switched to at that time hurt them (if, indeed, they are having financial issues). There's a way to do great licensing (look at Studiopress as an example), it seems Headway never quite got there.

It's a shame if they do go under, but I can't help but feel misguided decisions and hurried launches contributed.

Interesting to see no Headway presence (apart from users) in the comments here, too.
