Toucan 2.0

2.0 is the next major step for Toucan. As well as including a number of much requested features it also includes a complete interface rewrite. There is one main reason that I decided a rewrite was necessary, and that was because Toucan was becoming interface limited. For example translations are fairly difficult in 1.2 because it is a fixed size interface, this has also made it very difficult to add new features, short of changing the sizes of the entire dialogue and all of its components every time I need to add a new one.

Right then, as I am now properly host here on PA.com I thought that I would clear the blog out and start afresh. I'll be putting up some info about Toucan:TheNextBigVersion (Toucan:TNBV) in the next week or so but I'd like to start by putting up the download statistics for the month of August, basically I wanted to see how Toucan was comparing to the rest of the site, so here they are:
