Having gathered initial feedback from the v0.99 release, v0.99b is now available, with the following minor improvements: Iterations can be deleted. In v0.99, this feature just linked to the Story Delete, and wasn't implemented Date fields now have pop...
Whilst I've not had time to do all the documentation I was planning to over Christmas, I have got round to bundling up the installer and updating www.XPStoryStudio.com . So, available for download now (from the aforementioned URL), is v0.99 of XP StoryStudio...
I've been debating whether to post another entry on this for the last couple of weeks due to another bad smell I've spotted around Agile practices. However, it's my blog, and I think it's worth saying. But first, the bad smell... Zealotry. Many advocates...
