Yesterday I took a look at the history of milestones past, and it appears that the progress has been steady. Based on the experience of the last six months, I’d like to plan on making a minor release once every month until a stable release has been achieved. Because the testing process sometimes holds up a release, I’m going to ease up on the restriction that the tests must be run until all of them pass. While that I like the idea of testing thoroughly and frequently, the software is still in too volatile a state for the test results to be indicative of real problems.
Here’s a rough schedule for the next 6 months:
PBooks 0.10
Pending release… released!
PBooks 0.11 - End of May
PBooks 0.12 - End of June
PBooks 0.13 - End of July
PBooks 0.14 - End of August
PBooks 0.15 - End of September
Hello! Just a quick heads up - I’m doing some work on the account grouping functions and pages, and it will probably take a few days so if you checkout the subversion trunk, there will likely be bugs in the account groups sections.
The good news - this will be a major improvement. 
UPDATE - The main work is complete. The new setup requires the latest Nexista code from subversion though.

--------------------------------------------------I had to remove .libgda/* and .gnucash/*
I was able to run it again, but I’m not sure exactly which step did it, I cleared out the following in no specific order:
~/.gnucash
~/.gconf/gnucash
~/libgda/
/etc/gnucash/
/etc/libgda-0.3
I can then open gnucash, create a new file, and quit. When I start it again, I get this error:

No locals.I feel like its almost there…. but I still have a few questions:
* What is this database connection for:
I just emailed the gnucash dev list, maybe someone will have a hint. I also looked into gda docs again, and found mergeant. Looks like a nice admin tool for gnome-db (aka gda).
Still plugging along here at PBooks, and there are a couple of small but important developments:
* Over 2000 commits!
* Saved reports are now in XML format, on their way to being fully dynamic in the database
* jQuery is doing a great job of making javascript work for PBooks
The live demo is down while I perform some maintenance on the server. Should be back up shortly.
Good news - its back up!
jQuery is awesome. It now powers a lot of the client-side needs for PBooks, including date selection, table sorting, and more.
If you are interested in javascript and haven’t heard about jQuery, you might like it.
