Exactly what I thought when I saw that. Smile

To mark that Task Coach has been available for five years now, we call this release version 1.0. This release adds a calendar viewer for tasks, partial drag and drop support for Mail.app under Mac OS X Leopard and Snow Leopard, and configurable icons.

1.0.1 is available as a portable app on the website.
As the author is packaging the app himself.
I think that it would be wise to put a link on Task Coach's homepage,
Something to the effect of "For latest portable version - click here"
And it would be linked to http://www.taskcoach.org/download_for_windows.html which is the download site on the author's homepage for all windows builds both portable, and not-so portable.

So that the user can get the latest 'bug fix' which maybe only available on the author's site just do to sync issues.
