just kidding, it's been long enough. REAPER's been envolving so steadily it amazes me. Gradually mistakes (well, decisions, not really mistakes) I made get massaged out, and replaced by new code that seems to work better. A nice class I wrote that I should have a long time ago is a generic file reader class, that can use win32 overlapped I/O if supported (which seems to be necessary when moving a lot of data from lots of files on disk).. Having that will be useful in the future. But another good time was realizing a good way of doing something like the track reordering, and getting to throw out (comfortably, thank you version control) a bunch of code that was a pain, and replace it with a nice simple bit of code that works much better. anyway.

At my release rate (a version a day or so, I will run out of 0.xx version numbers before 1.0 is really ready. So maybe when I get to 0.9 I will do 0.9.0 and so on. My list of things to do is quite large, but then again I need to realize that 1.0 is just 1.0, and there will always be more to do. But I'm not in a terrible rush, anyway.

...now I'm tempted to write a shoutcast output plug-in for reaper, mmm....
