Alpha 20! I’m not sure that’s a milestone to be proud of 
This was a big bug fixing effort. Some problems with internationalisation, several problems for new users (+ some new niceties for them too), problems if you actually achieved inbox zero (that was a particular ironic delight!), the Force Above Chat checkbox that didn’t work on Windows and a few smaller issues for good measure.
I condensed the ‘Quick Views’ and ‘Label Categories’ into a single pane, ‘Reviews’. I was never happy with the use of Statuses in the Label Categories as it did not make sense alongside a bulb. Hopefully you’ll find the new layout much more elegant, as well as flexible.
Finally, we’re not done yet – I think there will be another release this week. I wanted to get this out as fast as possible though, because the bugs were frankly tiresome for everyone
Andy,
You’ve been busy! Thank you for also taking the time to announce the forum. And about an A20, lets face it version 3 is developing under sever pressure because of the GMail changes that created the V2 issues. And despite that you aren’t compromising the fact that V3 is a complete overhaul with trial concepts and iterative improvements. You could have chosen to freeze V 3 development the moment V 2 had trouble but I believe this product is maturing and becoming ever more useful much faster then if you had split yourself between a stop gap stable V3 and forced all of us core users to wait for V4 to restart the innovation process. So for what it’s worth you have my support to keep up Alphas through 99 if need be. It doesn’t hurt that you are as responsive as you are some something serious comes up and it is an inherent benefit to your entire structure that even when broken you are still left with useful labels. Please keep charging full speed ahead. Sincerely Alan
Yay! It’s working with an empty Inbox!
Andy,
The new factoring of the Side box from “Quick views” and “Label Categories” down to Reviews with a
ToDo overview works. However shouldn’t the “Force above Chat” be moved into options?
If you hadn’t introduced the new factoring I was going to suggest that if a specific status under overview was selected then rather then wasting the left column of the View box telling you that when you look at one status the others are all empty you should let the status label that is being viewed float to the head of the box and allow the sub-sort/filter of projects, context, or contact take up the left panel and allow you to select to open or fold the individual entries to show in the main panel. This would give you one more potential level to sub-sort projects by either context or contact or sub-sort context by project or contact …
I need to play with this some more. As always Thank you and your staff for the effort. You are continuing to delight with the insights your implementation allows.
I just upgraded and I get the following error:
GTDInbox is unable to load correctly.
Error during gtdMainPagePlugin load: TypeError: label is undefined
Hi Vassili, I’ll drop you an email and see if we can get this sorted.
Extension doesn’t install! problems with install.rdf. Previously I installed all the alpha versions of GTD inbox. I tried to install alpha20 because alpha19 doesn’t load.
Snooze – I’m going to drop you an email about this, I suspect it’s a unique issue.
I’ve had trouble with pre-labelling for quite a while – wonder if there’s a connection to using Gmail offline function through Gears?
