Alex,
This is a little off topic, but if I donate today for Tasks 1.8.6 which I am starting to use, does that get credited towards a purchase of Tasks 2.0 (personal) when you release that?
TIA.
Tim

Hi Tim, no it doesn’t. What it does get you is access to the 2.0 betas. I’m also planning on offering a discount to people who have donated, but your donation is exactly that - a donation.

Our programmers have tried tasks 2.0b3 and we can say that it has been improved significantly. We would recommend it to everybody.
