KnitMinder release scheduled for late May

I'm finishing up the next release of KnitMinder and hope to have it submitted to Apple sometime next week. This release contains a few bug fixes and some new features that knitters have been asking for, including support for modular needles and the ability to enter fiber blends for yarns. Apple has a huge developer conference in early June, so I want to get this release in their system for approval before that happens because they sometimes put a hold on app reviews if they are going to make a big announcement at the conference.

It's been a month since KnitMinder and KnitMinder Lite were released, and downloads are still strong. We average about 25 downloads per day for the free version and about five or six of the full version. Apple only pays developers when they accumulate $250 in sales in each region (US, Canada, UK, etc), and even then their terms are net 45 days, so I haven't yet tasted the fruits of my labor... More importantly, this is the reason you haven't heard about the first of the 10% donation checks yet. We are still planning on sending the first donation to the House Rabbit Society, but are open to suggestions for other animal-related charities for future donations.

Thanks again to everyone who has written in with great suggestions for the program and especially those folks who reviewed the design for modular needles!
