Other Notes
Still no OSX support. One day, when I find a good machine that I can test and develop on comfortably.
I’m hoping to release a Beta 4 that is feature complete, and then Version 1.0 after that.
On the whole, I’m pretty happy with this release. I feel like I’ve accomplished what I set out to do. It is my daily music player and it does everything I want it to do.
