Just lettting you know that version 4 is in beta testing with an anticipated release date of August 2009. There are many worthwhile enhancements and additions, but no calendar yet. A request to participate should be addressed to Kinook.

several useful features, but nothing major :(
Nonetheless, still the best (IMHO)

Jon,
Thank you for the hint.
I am still using UR even development has slowed down. The coming release of v4 and the regular minor bug fix releases during the year make me optimistic that UR will have a future. Further, it is very stable and reliable.
