What's it all about, Alfie?

This morning I noticed that the Growl Team had updated the Growl Version Detective to version 1.2, and with it, they changed significantly the interface and it's capabilities. In recent days, the Team had released the 1.3 SDK and the new version of the Growl Version Detective gathers together all the known Growl-based applications and lists their version of the Growl.framework. It then allows you to upgrade the app to version 1.3 of the framework, which is a nice new feature.

I was able to see that Colloquy was on 1.1.2, I think, and after trying to upgrade it to 1.2.2 myself, I didn't hold out a lot of hope that 1.3 was going to fix things. Silly me! I punched the button and restarted, and things started popping up in the proper style just like magic. Amazing. Clearly, they have done a lot of work on the 1.3 SDK, and then to put that into the Growl Version Detective was really a wonderful idea. Brilliant, in fact.

So I'm now just waiting for Colloquy to get an update. It's in the offing, waiting for the 1.3 SDK to become final, and then they should be able to update the codebase and release something. Looking forward to it.
