No Support!

Seems that Lester Chan is not supporting this plugin. I am currently unable to update the plugin in WordPress without issues. He is not responsive. The plugin was also supposed to report the ratings to Google which is does not. Why does WP allow abandoned plugins to remain on their site? If the plugins are not supported by the developers they should be removed.
