No progress this week at all. I’ve been too busy with some other stuff in my life. Good news is that once everything settles, I have a lot time to focus on CE. There has been reports on some bugs that need further testing so the next version will be 0.90 beta 4. My aim is to release it next Friday. Anyway, I’ll keep it short this week.

It’s been quite a busy week and I haven’t had much time to work with CE. The original plan was to release 0.90 final today but that was way too wishful thinking. Beta 3 brought some new bugs that need to be fixed. Hopefully I’ll make better progress next week. I did managed to fix few bugs and add a "ViewStyle Menu" button in Customizer.

Anyway, here’s the snapshot:

No progress on CE this week. Last weekend I started to rebuild my HTPC. I figured since I’ve been using Windows to handle that task for many years, it’s time to see what Linux has to offer. The plan was to get everything up and running over the weekend. Obviously it was way too optimistic timeframe since I’ve been working with it whole week. Finally yesterday I finished the job… kinda. Due to my own stupidity, I managed to blow up the motherboard! So no HTPC for a while . I’ll write more about the HTPC endeavor in my blog.

Anyway, next week I’ll go back to the regular schedule and do more work with CE. I’m hoping to release 0.90 final next Friday. After it’s released I’ll write a proper roadmap for CE and also open help wiki. If anyone knows a good, easy to use (wysiwyg) wiki or help system, let me know. This server can only support PHP and MySQL.

Have a nice weekend everyone

Little shorted this week. I fixed most of the reported bugs including the shutdown bug. I received tons of bug reports from it, which is OK. Keep sending them if crashes happen, they help a lot. I added refresh function to bookmarks. They now automatically update when a drive is inserted/removed, or other changes occur. I haven’t done much testing with it so any feedback is welcome. Another new thing is an "Arrange By" button you can find from the Customizer.

There’s been pretty nice progress. Many bug fixes and I added an "Arrange By" item in the background menu. I’m still working with the scripting engine and scripts to update SVN log and SVN download automatically. Anyway, I’ll keep it short this week. Here’s the download:

*** Update ***
There is a bug in this release that might crash CE when you close it. To "fix" it, disable the auto save from session properties. I’ll release new version this weeks Friday that will fix this issue.
