The Etoys team reports that the first beta release of Etoys 4.1 is now available. The biggest change is that stopping the Etoys activity will no longer save to the Journal. To save, you will have to press the keep button. The octagonal stop button is replaced by a circular exit button to indicate the new behavior. It puts up a warning before actually quitting. More about the rationale for this change can be found [http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/sugar-devel/2010-August/026398.html here].

[[Features/Remove_Presence_Service |This Feature]] removes the need for the Presence Service, meaning that activities and the Shell need to interact directly with non-Sugar-specific services such as Telepathy.  

 

[[Features/Spiral_Home_View | The Spiral Home View]] is an enhancement to the Home View to enable the display of more icons. The idea is that after the circle becomes too large, rather than shrinking the icons, it morphs into a spiral. Only after the spiral no longer fits on the screen do the icons shrink.

 

[[Features/Journal_Sort | New filtering options]] have been added to the Journal. You can sort now by size, creation date and modification date.
