By now, we have sent out invites to more than 13,000 people. And everyone who purchased the recent MacUpdate bundle also got access to Things. With so many new users, it is no surprise that new bugs were discovered. This release fixes the most important ones and greatly increases stability. For more details, see the Release Notes.
User reports indicate some potential crashes related to Undo/Redo. We therefore temporarily disabled undo functionality until we had a chance to get a clear picture of what is going on.
We would like to thank Dan, Grant, and Alex for helping us to discover one of the most serious bugs we ever encountered in one of Apple's frameworks (Core Data XML Store). Under Tiger, notes that contained hashes (#) were garbled when Things was closed and subsequently reopened. This could even lead to archives becoming inaccessible. Apple already fixed this bug in Leopard and we have included a workaround in 0.8.3 so that Tiger users are now safe as well.
