It should be out in the next few days. I had plans for what I wanted to include in the release but I just can't find the time these days to get any of it done.
To save any further delays I'm going to release the skin, as is, and also get it into the XBMC Skinning project SVN.
I just don't seem to be able to make the time for any skinning at the moment and with what is due to be coming up it's unlikely to change any time soon.
Once this release is out I'll aim to come back and fix any bugs but it's unlikely I'll be adding any new features in the near future.

Having just updated to the latest MiniMeedia my home page now doesn't display any backdrops? The backdrops display fine under Weather / TV Shows / Movies / etc, it's just the home screen that's black. I've tried just about everything I can think of, "Hide Weather Fanart" is turned off etc, am I doing something wrong?
Other than that, I've been using MiniMeedia for a while now and I think it's awesome! Definitely my favourite skin. The only thing I slightly miss, I think possibly from the Hitcher skin, is how easy it was to play movie trailers and TV episode previews - you'd press "down" from the movie/episode info screen. It's hardly much more difficult now, it's only a couple of clicks from "Refresh" to "Trailer", but maybe you could make the info screen default onto "Trailer" instead of "Refresh"?
Thanks for all the hardwork and to anyone that can help sort my problem.
EDIT: Thought I'd add that I'm running XBMC 9.04.1 r20672 and MiniMeedia v0.92
EDIT2: Updating to the latest svn version solved the problem.
