AdverseDeviant, re-read the OP and try not to miss the HUGE EFFING MESSAGE regarding bug reporting this time. Boggles the mind how anyone could miss that.

Update on development - Managed to knock out most of the issues reported on github, but the tabstop issue with textboxes, etc. is really something. I'm fairly certain that my complex use of Panels has exposed a bug in the framework, so I'm prepping a bug report for Microsoft. That's really the only issue holding up another release. Once I can find a way around that, I'll post another build.

Found a workaround for the tabs. Forgot to mention that I was going to enable auto-version-checks. That's last on the list before a new beta for testing, and then depending on the bugs reporting I figure a week or two to a full release.

So could we see a new beta by the end of the week?

Never a good idea to ask for release dates I couldn't promise one anyhow.

Hi, the download link doesnt work any more.

[andrew_]

I cant edit the original post, and neowin hasn't given me an answer about it.

You can always find the downloads here: https://github.com/s...-Plus/downloads

(always be willing to do some digging on your own, you could have found that pretty easily)

Just wanted to update everyone who is patiently waiting - with the holidays creeping up, time got a little short. I'm taking vacation the last week of the year, so I'll have pooptons of time to get 3.0 wrapped up.

I'm also going to work on a GCal Notifier variant (because I desperately need a good one at home) during that time, and will hopefully have something in beta for that too.

I've been reading some on how Chrome does the seamless updates in the background and where it puts it's EXE files. It dumps everything into the User directory and gets around all kinds of permissions problems that way. I'm probably going to go that route as well here in the near future and put together an installer which puts files in Users\[user]\Local\Gmail Notifier Plus. Anyhow, just thinking out loud.

[andrew_]

Good news. 3.0 final will be available tomorrow. Look for a new thread.
