Thank you for your kind words.

Note that you'll want to uninstall the old version as well as install the new 
version. Otherwise, you'll continue to get update notifications as long as the 
old version is the one that's running. (It's possible to have both because 
Dropbox installs Growl in your Library whereas our installer installs it in the 
all-users Library.)

We'd previously decided that the installer should leave the per-user Growl 
alone for our own testing purposes (some of us run a development Growl in the 
Home Library but may need to test the installer), but I think this needs to 
change in the next release. At least until Dropbox knocks off installing Growl, 
our installer will have to uninstall the per-user Growl when one is present.
