You released several updates at 4am on New Year's Day ? You have a decidedly geeky way of celebrating the New Year! How do we even know these updates aren't full of champagne-induced bugs ? Just kidding ...

Thank you for all the dedication you put in PortableApps.com. I'm looking forward to more great stuff in the coming year (starting with the 2.0 Platform, obviously).

Best wishes for 2010 to all PA.c developers, moderators and users !!

It was actually due to a SourceForge delay. I was planning on having everything caught up by the end of 2009 and starting the new releases of platform stuff this weekend, but SF got stuck again mid-day yesterday. They freed up and I was up, so I pushed them out. NSIS Portable is still stuck, though, so it may not come through til Monday now.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

When you say to install PuTTY Portable and WinSCP Portable to the "same directory", I think you just mean as sibling directories - X:\PortableApps\PuTTYPortable and X:\PortableApps\WinSCPPortable. Maybe "to the same parent directory"?
