Welcome to the AstroPlanner blog

I am setting up this blog with the primary goal of revealing, in stages, Version 2.0 of AstroPlanner. I’ll be showing off the new and changed features, and I hope you will comment on these features so that I know I’m on on the right path. I might also use this blog as a venue to blow off steam on occasion, as I seem to be doing a fair amount of that around here lately (I might appear as Mr Nice Guy to users, but everybody has their alter ego lurking in the background).

Please note that any information about unreleased versions of AstroPlanner mentioned here should not be considered to be binding in any way, unless it is specifically stated to be so.
