Version 2.3.1, announced last June, is now officially reported Missing In Action, fallen to determined bug attacks - and pressing other engagements - during the testing phase. RIP.

At long last, activeRenderer 2.4 is now ready for download. It has all the features of 2.3.1, and a whole bunch of others. Here's a short list:

• The registration process at first time installation is now history: I couldn't afford the time to replace the aging (defunct?) registration service graciously offered by eVectors in Northen Italy. New users: we'd still love hearing from you, drop us a note anyway.
• activeRenderer is now available in German, thanks to Werner Bohlmann and a little help from Albert Baeumel, as well as in Italian, thanks to Fabio Artuso. Gwénaël's work in vs. 2.3 makes localization almost painless; we're still looking for Spanish, Dutch and Danish contributions. To switch languages, use the popup at the bottom of activeRenderer's preferences page.
• The outline rendering of RSS feeds and of Radio's aggregator is vastly improved: no more risks of crashing Radio when feeds contain malformed HTML Tags. I also added a clever (I hope) sentences processor to separate posts content into outline nodes in a clean way (this was a major endeavour, took way too long :-)
• The outline browser got a little face surgery. You can check it out on the demo site.

  Local lists in the 'news' and 'outlines' tabs are now selectable. After selecting an entry, you can either delete it (unsubscribe for an RSS feed) or rename it. Clicking twice on an entry puts you directly in text editing mode.

  When browsing a news feed which is not in your subscription list already, you can subscribe to it directly. Finally you can enlarge or reduce the font used to display outlines.
• At Thomas Burg's request, you can open transcluded Flash or QT Movie objects full size in a different window when clicking on the new 'spyglass' button that appears at the right of the transcluded node.
• At Gwénaël's suggestion, I added a new startup preference so that aR may republish in the background at a programmable interval all pages created using a template that includes the rssBox macro.
  

If I can convince Gwénaël to lead the development of the next 2.5 version of activeRenderer, it will include wizards to easily format and style rssBox and activeRoll macros in weblog publishing templates.
