All:
I think it was Mark Twain who said "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated."
I note a (presumably working) demonstration of the CanQuest software is on the slate for the ESim conference in Halifax next week. See page 14 of the ESim Program posted here: http://esim.ca/
All the Best,

List, I do not mean to cause controversy but I am going to re-post this to see if it gets a response this time.
When I had an issue I tracked down the phone number for the Hirsch's of
805-532-1045<tel:805-532-1045>, and left a voicemail, then was texted back the message
"please send email to jeff.hirsch at doe2.com<mailto:jeff.hirsch at doe2.com> and when I emailed the below I
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?
Jeff,
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.
Now I have read the PDF published on the subject, and am very curios if the
compliance analysis tool is something that you believe to work correctly?
(I would be happy to find out I made some error, but can not find any such
errors on my part, and someone told me that the tool does not work so I
doubt it is error on my part)

I am not upset. I just couldn't tell if you meant to just send that to Maria Elena. My guess is you are going to generate some controversy but that is ok with me.

Sorry Jason, could you please school me-- what is going on
with CanQuest? Why is it that the well documented complience
tools can not be used? What should I not say to not upset
the modarater? I only said what I think is true
from research and use of the tool.

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

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