I'm down to a few things for BottomFeeder 4.0. Rich has a number of good suggestions for the tabs, and I intend to follow those up. That will impact his ability to get the updated documentation done, so we'll have some lag there as well. Things are moving well though - I expect to have this all wrapped up within 2 weeks. Fingers crossed :)
Here's what's coming up in the new release:
- More search feed engines supported. I've added a few search engines - DayPop and IceRocket. Additionally, I've simplified the feed builder dialog to one UI, where you select the engine to build a feed for.
- Search feed wizard - say you find a new search engine that supports RSS/Atom, but Bf doesn't support it yet. No problem - define the feed building query in the wizard and go
- Tabs - you can keep items around in tabs instead of relying on memory or history. Tabs can be "torn off" into their own windows as well. Check the pop up menu on the tabs for what you can do
- Font resizing fixed - thanks to Steve Kelly, the font sizing (up and down) works properly now
- del.icio.us support fixed - there had been a bug in sending links to del.icio.us - that's fixed now
- Enhancements to the XHTML display pane, thanks to the ongoing work by the Software with Style guys
- Streamlined toolbar - some of the less frequently used items have been moved off to menus
That's the major stuff - a whole raft of bugs were fixed, and the blog posting tool saw some fixes as well. All in all, this should be a great release.
