    logoHere's a quick status update on the goings-on of PortableApps.com and the Road to 2.0. We've finalized the default theme and chrome, we wound up having to do one more set of translations (due to the website upgrade delay), we've got some news on the financial front and we've got a sneak preview of a couple of 2.0 features which happen to be useful for translators as well.

    We've posted an updated set of strings for translation for the 2.0 Platform that we could use your help with. We've added in all the current translations submitted by the community as well for review. This new set of strings is particularly important for adding apps in languages other than English as the new app directory on the site which will allow for multilingual app descriptions won't be coming out until after 2.0.

    Rather than post a very-late progress update for the week ending tonight, I'll roll it up with the next and post it in a few days with some new developments. Nothing too much to report yet other than catching up on outdated apps, getting a pre-release of GnuCash out (please test!), Firefox 4.0 RC 1, finishing up LibreOffice and a few more behind the scenes things. Hope everyone had a good weekend!

    If you might not have noticed, I haven't been posting new development tests lately.
    My ever-growing list of portable apps has paused. What does that mean? It either means that Angel I'm tired of making portable apps, (b) I've got to much stuff on my hands, (c) I'm making a new super-awesome app that will blow your minds away, or (d) Both (b) and (c) are happening.

    And the answer is... you guessed it: (a)!

    Biggrin

    Just kidding, it's (d).
