A quick update is now available for @Hotmail.com users.

This update will also fix problems with other servers that don't allow folder creation/modification

Changes in 2.12.0::

• Additional authentication methods for Exchange server 2003 SP2 (already supported for later versions)

Version 2.11.0 is now in the marketplace. It contains a few changes but more importantly some sync fixes.

One of the featureI had to remove from the update was themes. It had too many issue to be release and I did not want to hold back this update to resolve them. Hopefully these issues will be worked out for the next release.

• This version retargets the solution to the .NET 4 framework and binds it to the Office 2010 Primary Interop Assemblies. This should improve the compatibility with Office 2010.

The next release is almost ready and I would just like to share some of the changes that are coming.

• New Core Features: Context, Notes, Goals are all ready for the next release. Locations is in the works but may not make it into this release as the interface may not be ready.
• UI Changes: A new hub view has been added to allow for some of these new features. This hub ties into the current view and can be disabled for those that love a straight Todo list view. The task view has also been slimmed down to add some additional real estate.
• Task view pivot (The left and right thing that currently linked to categories): This can now can be configured. Options include Context, Folder, or disabled
• Extended Sorting: You now have the option of doing a secondary sort along with sorting order
• Extended Live Counts: Initially counts was added to test the feature. It has now been cleaned up - You now have the option of setting what that count should be.
• Additional Sync Checks: While the current version is still the most reliable Toodledo sync option for windows phone 7 there have been some phantom issues. These issues appear then disappear so I've added additional checks to the sync coding to make sure everything moves along smoothly.

Locations is the next major feature that is coming soon and will include some neat features.

Yesterday I went through the process of moving to a new server because of performance issues on the old server. There was a longer than expected downtime mainly because of DNS issues - viperal.com was redirecting to the wrong site. This issue was corrected last night and all is good now.

The main reason for the move was because of the website performance but it will also allow me to test push support. While this may not yet allow for full push support, I will be enabling it to a few testers in version 3.0.
