Beta Testing

Hey all, this is sort of a follow up on the post John put up.
He mentioned that there were not many people that were testing the apps
There are a bunch of people who signed up for the team but not many(including me) have been fully testing apps.

For each new app, if we could have someone sign up to be lead tester. That person should have at least one hour to spend to test the app. No saying you would need an hour, but that way when the lead tester would reply s/he could get everything.

The lead tester could then post back with the results of the test.

Application: JkDefrag
Category: Utilities
Description: JkDefrag is a disk defragmenter and optimizer for Windows 2000/2003/XP/Vista/2008/X64.

I wrote out a GUI for this program using AutoIt and modeled after the Windows Defragmenter a little. This program also will launch the x32 or x64 version of JkDefrag depending on your architecture.

Application: RegCool
Category: System/Registry Editor
Description: RegCool is an advanced tool for viewing and
changing the system registry.

Application: SpeedCrunch
Category: Utilities
Description: SpeedCrunch is a sweet calculator with some awesome features. It has a beautiful interface with syntax highlighting, history of expression (up down like in the command prompt), unlimited variables, and much more. If that's more than you need, don't let it scare you away. SpeedCrunch has a very simple interface for performing any simple math.

I've posted a pre-release of KeePass Portable 1.11 for folks to test out. This new release introduces multilingual support. I'm including French, Italian and German (our currently supported languages) as well as Simplified Chinese, Japanese and Spanish (the next languages we'll be officially supporting) in the package. The launcher has also been updated to support the language auto-switching from the upcoming Platform release. To use it, create a text file called start.bat in your KeePassPortable directory and add the following:

SET PortableApps.comLocaleWinName=LANG_SPANISH

I've just posted an experimental Development Test of OpenOffice.org Portable Light. As was discussed in the recent OpenOffice.org Portable 2.4 Pre-Release topic, this package is designed to leave out most optional components that take up the most room like: help, UNO-Python bridge, non-English dictionaries, fonts (except OpenSymbol, which is small and required), etc. By leaving all the above out, we end up with a much lighter package with most of the functionality. For comparison:

Application: AutoIt

Hey all. I'm the developer of BPFTP Server/Client and I'm big into the USB/Flash-Drive thing.

To this end, I just released "BulletProof FTP Server Portable Edition" which includes an installer and Auto-Run support (as much as MS will allow prior to their Start-Key product later in the year).

Check it out, let me know if you run into problems at:
