Indeed I agree the Issues Tracker was very useful and is a huge loss.
Has Dinky also moved updates/fixes etc somewhere we can't see? After the recent BBC changes I expected to see commits being put into the development version as the new issues were sorted and things were changed. Instead though GIT said that the development versions was only 1 commit ahead of the master and the last commit to bump the dev version was back on the 11th February.
Today though following the release of GiP 3.00, a look back through the commits shows that the last few weeks have seen a lot of activity as depreciated options were removed and things were fixed.
