Development on Fern release 0.3 has been moving along steadily among other commitments. Unlike previous versions, this one will not be released for the sake of it as there has to be a number of features finished and working before 0.3 hits the internets. It should also be noted that Fern 0.3 will be the first Alpha release, marking the the road towards betas and the final version.
Version 0.3 now has a new login interface that is much cleaner and will do for now. Also work has been going into implementing the Picasa API for uploading images with posts but I seem to be having more setbacks than step forwards with this API. This release will feature a new interface that will be very similar to the final version, while still boasting reduced size, cleaner look, better access and more advanced views.
Fern 0.3 has been put on hold for a short while as I work on Fern 0.2.5 (Core Data Revision) and as the title suggests it will be a rewritten version of 0.2 which takes advantage of Core Data for information storage. It will have a revised interface to take further advantage of this new framework, but I do not know if I will release it to the public. I can almost guarantee that 0.2.5 will become 0.3 so stay tuned for more updates.
