There's supposed to be a new version of the PortableApps Installer released soon. That's almost certainly what's holding things back right now (don't quote me on that, though).
"The question I would like to know, is the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe and Everything. All we know about it is that the Answer is Forty-two, which is a little aggravating."
The Installer 2.0.3 is due to fix up a couple of minor bugs with online installers and for all the others improve behaviour slightly with the PortableApps.com Updater. Once it comes out, the release queue will be cleared.
