Very cool, this looks like a big update. Does the MSI installer mean Titanium apps will show up in the native Add/Remove Programs menu?
Are you going to be recording the “Titanium for New Developers” event today? I can’t attend at this time? Where would I find the recorded session? Thanks.
@fgwenger – yes, we’ve added the links to the webcast in the latest blog post. We’ll update with the 0.8 webcast tomorrow after that webcast is concluded.
