It’s been three months since the last Timesheet release, and I think you’ve waited long enough for a new version (I like to let you wait a little so you don’t get too demanding).
You can get Timesheet 0.5 at the download page, as usual, or through the update checker.
Version 0.5 contains a couple of bug fixes and two new features: Data can be exported into the iCal format, and I’ve added a simple search function.
Have fun!
Thanks to everyone who attended my talk about Sixdegreesofgoogle during the Linzer Linuxtage at the Ars Electronica Center yesterday.
It was a good event, and I enjoyed the discussions about the role of Google and the possible emergence of alternatives afterwards very much.
For everyone interested (and in case you missed the event), I’ve put up the slides for download.
I’d also like to take the opportunity to thank Ushi Reiter from servus.at for the kind invitation and the “Introduction by shouting”.
Timesheet 0.4.3 is here.
This version has the ability to check for updates on the website. The functionality is avaible via the “help” menu (which does not make much sense, but seems to be the place de jour for this sort of stuff) or you can set it to automatically check for new versions on startup. Please note that this feature is disabled by default.
The felt startup time of 0.4.3 is lower than for 0.4.2, because the application connects to the HSQLDB database after the main window is created. No change on the total loading time.
I swear to god, if I make this thing start faster, I’ll call it a 0.5.
As promised, more frequent updates to Timesheet. Release 0.4.2 is an iterative release: It fixes one critical bug that would hinder it from starting when there was no configuration file present (only relevant for new users), but apart from that, there are very few new features.
As always, get it from the Download page.
