The verification process is over, I now have a valid code signing certificate. Windows will no longer complain about an unknown publisher. Also it's no longer necessary to install Visual C++ Redistributable.

Sorry for a long period without new releases. 0.81 is the biggest release yet with support for Twitter and Gmail, dramatically improved performance (no more "fetching new messages... please wait"), lots of Windows fixes, and visual improvements. Linux support in 0.82.

Volt for Windows is finally live: volt-app.com/wininfo Sorry for the delay. There were major memory bugs that could only be debugged with Valgrind on Linux, so I had to work on the Linux build. The good news is that the Linux build is going to be released sooner on March 10

I spent most of the day working on the Windows build for the planned Feb 13 release. Unfortunately I'm not satisfied with the quality of the build. I'm also moving house tomorrow, so the release is going to be postponed by 2 days. Sorry about that.
