Request Apps

A quick search shows that this has been requested before, but not for a while. Please consider adding Quantum GIS to the stable - QGIS is open source (GNU Public License) and runs great off a thumbdrive. Well it used to at any rate. Recent versions are not so happy (and probably older versions were never properly portable).

Release notes for the current version (1.6) explain how it can be made portable (see http://www.qgis.org/en/about-qgis/qgis-releases.html):

Anyone interested in this game?

Python Portable? Add to "Development" in the Portable Apps directory?

I have been looking for a simple timeline making program, which is a very useful thing to have, in my opinion.

I have found the open-source program 'Timeline' on SourceForge:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/thetimelineproj/

This is different from GanntProject, as it it suitable for making historical timelines. Try it out - it's pleasant to use.

The installer makes some keys in HKLM/SOFTWARE and also some entries for MS IntelliPoint under HKCU, as well as a file in %APPDATA%.

I know that these programs are not Open Source but they are Freeware. According to a thread on their forum, they are working on making their programs portable. I would love to see their programs in the PortableApps.com Format. Here is more information about their applications:
