Recent updates

29-Mar-2013: TrackRecord v2.0 released

At long last, a Rails 3.2 / Ruby 1.9 compatible version of TrackRecord is available.

21-Feb-2013: In New Zealand

I've been spending time over in New Zealand for the last few months so nothing much has been happening with the site. There should at least be some good gallery updates eventually :-)

07-Aug-2012: SwiftJPEG v1.13

Version 1.13 of SwiftJPEG is now available for RISC OS machines. This version makes the program more robust when faced with certain kinds of malformed JPEG images.

31-Jul-2012: Add Folder Icons 2.1.0 source code

The source code to Add Folder Icons v2.1.0 is now available. It was approved and released on the Mac App Store yesterday. The release was automatically picked up by MacUpdate and Softpedia.

12-Jul-2012: Still Here!

Too much Facebook, not enough web site stuff... I suddenly realised it was over a year since the last front page update, which isn't good. Add Folder Icons 2.1.0 with sandboxing is under approval on the Mac App Store and, in fact, has been since May 26th (!) - apparently the delay is due to its required use of some temporary entitlements for inter-process communication. No idea when it'll go live and I can't really post the source code until it is.

In other news I've not done any significant travelling etc. this year but there are some local pictures of note that ought to go into the galleries sooner or later, so I hope to update these before too many more months pass by. Sadly, still not yet found time for making more music.
