Just want to say that I really like the direction of 3.0 and think the changes are great so far. Big fan of the new episode view, glow mode, and the new home screen widgets. I also like the ability to remove the rear panel on some the views too - I personally like panel-less for most of the views and the option is great to have. The coordination between Phil and BN seems to be working out quite nicely.
Keep up the great work!

Quick question - in general, what is the time lag between what's on Passion Repo for v3.0 vs. doing a direct pull from git? I'm currently using Passion Repo and it seems to be at least one day, and potentially 2-3.

You'd have to ask the Passion repo guys. They control when they do their updates. For badwidth reasons, it's probably done once a day (it's basically a bot that scans for changes in different svn and git repos). If you want to have it updated sooner, you'll have to use git.

Thanks for the info guys - was merely curious about the lag time - was noticing discussion of features or changes that I had yet to see from the Passion Repo. I can wait a day or two to see them - plus, I have the added benefit of fewer bugs most of the time. Between the rapid adopters and Phils ridiculously fast response times on changes/fixes, most of what I get is already working great!
A couple Nox 3.0 relevant questions about direction/future:
1. Interested in playing around with Advanced Launcher (never used before) and have noticed some skins with native support for it. Do I need to do anything special to get it to work with Nox? Any plans for a more 'native' support in 3.x? Based on what I see with all of the menu/favorites customizations, it looks like 'native' support may be unnecessary.
2. With the slow death of Weather+ addon, looks like Ronie has been updating Weather Underground to provide all of the same data that Weather+ did. Any plans on porting the views and data displayed when using Weather+ to the views when using Weather Underground? I also noticed that when using Weather+ in Nox 3.0 the PDA-style weather widget is partially 'broken' in that it does not display any of the weather icons in the widget, while still displaying temp/condition
3. I have been using the Glow effect/and color labels - liking the overall effects greatly. It looks great pretty much everywhere. I do notice that it also colors the text when using the PDA-style weather widget on the Home screen, actually just noticed that it affects all of the featured widgets for music/movies/TV as well. Any way to prevent the widgets from inheriting the color labels that are using in the various views?

exchanged weather plus support with weather.wunderground support for now. not perfect yet, but works in general. that weather addon will be default for all users in some time, right?
also uncoloured some labels.
