Like I had said previously my preferred timeline is v0.7.0 for the new year and v0.8.x about a month later. v0.7.0 will include as many of the problems/features as I can attempt to fix/implement between now and 2012, anything left will go into v0.8.x, hence the shorter cycle for it.
I suppose you are wondering what I've been doing if I'm just about to start implementing all of the feature requests, well to do things properly required in my mind a large rewrite of some of the system. I've tried to be true to the initial objectives of TU, synchronization, as such this is where I have spent the majority of my time. The new system should be all round faster, more reliable, more resilient and most importantly easier to work with. It is this ease of use that will allow us to more efficiently add all your suggestions for new features.
I plan to have this major change in the official repo asap, I just need to run it by Manromen, then I'm looking for the bravest of the brave to try it out. I'm trying to avoid understating things, the new system needs testing, but it could also leave you with annoying glitches in your trakt DB. This will defiantly be try it at your own risk, as such no download link will be provided. Should you feel like to can do me the great favor and help me test this you can contact me directly for instructions (or just pull the code from github).
The following are a list of things I will try to do before the new year (this is just off the top of my head so there will be things I've missed)
- Hunt down and eradicate the freezes on closing of XBMC
- Add all of the missing options inside the media windows (ie watchlists etc) for things like rating
- Play via tv show windows
- A set of skinning variables for TU status
- Options to control when TU makes notifications (also see previous)
- Include resume watch time in total watch time
- Notification of friends events
- Skin variables for recommendations/watch-list/etc
- A set of jsonrpc commands that can be used to control TU from other plugins, etc.
- And lots that I can't remember right now
Lets see how many we get done before the new year.
Seasons greetings, stay safe,

what about the random freezing while TU is running its scans, this had been a major issue for a lot of users for the last three months... logs have already been posted in previous posts
