The version of Cashbox that I have in development is looking great. Unfortunately school has started back up for me again today, and I have a pretty heavy course load. I'll be plugging away at Cashbox when I have time, but development will slow down a lot.
I wanted to be finished with Cashbox mid-summer, but it takes a conciderable amount of time to re-write an applicaiton. The good thing is that it's really shaping up to be something a lot better. I was able to implement some features that I didn't expect would be happening for a long time.
If you're still reading, chances are you might be one of the few people really excited about a new version. I'll hope to get it out soon. (I'm probably the most excited to use something new and better.) In the mean time, feel free to track what I'm doing. Send me an e-mail if you want to see a new, much improved version sooner, and I'll add you to my list of beta testers.

I forgot to post an update here, but it looks like Senuti is now running fine on the Intel machines (as of version 0.32) thanks to help from a few users. Thanks!

I imagine that the transition should go fairly smoothly. Rosette seems like it will work pretty well for many applications that can't compile right away for x86. By that I mean that from reports it seems like users will be able to run the applications without noticing too much of a speed lag if any at all.
From reports around the internet it seems that Apple might be ahead of schedule. That's all just speculation, so it's hard to say one way or another.
Anyway, my plan at this time is to release universal binaries for each of my applications around the time that the Intel machines start to ship (or possibly sooner). I'll hope to be able to make all of the universal binaries run on the same PPC platforms that they do right now. The information to target different settings for different architectures was buried deep in Apple's documentation, but it looks like it should be possible to get universal binaries that can work on all systems down to the ones that are currently supported. I don't have a way of testing on Intel machines, so I'll have to rely on community feedback (I have recieved a report that Senuti runs just fine on OS X for x86 when compiled for the x86 machines and don't know how it does under Rosette, but that shouldn't be an issue).
I'm posting this to give anyone who strongly objects the chance to do so, but I don't see any reason that anyone would.

Well it's been a long time since I've written anything here. In part I haven't written anything because I wanted to keep the Coder Wanted post from August up as long as possible. (AmbitiousLemon is still looking for a Coder for the project.) The other reason is because I've been extremely busy with school. I've had a little free time recently, though, and have updated the site slightly.
I've wanted for a long time to update the site to something like this, and I'm pleased with the way that it turned out. I hope everyone likes it!
On another note, Senuti 0.29 flew past all previous releases in the number of initial downloads. I'd like to send thanks out to everyone who has helped spread the word recently, and please keep letting your friends know!
