aw, cool :) i'm glad you like it. it's been fun working on it from design to implementation ... as of today we also have the nice little error and confirmation bubbles that i've been dreaming of (see attached screenshot for what pops up when you press "Uninstall") we have the test server up and running, though i have not yet tested the installation for correctly sending email (though hopefully it is; will test this tomorrow) and it is still a beta version so server interuptions are possible ... but it should essentially work for people interested in taking it for a spin, and Sebastian has added it to the PA images... > The column swiping interaction looks very useful.
