Ruby File Synchronizer release 0.7

I am proud to announce the second release of the Ruby File Synchronizer in Version 0.7, which receives the state "beta". The synchronization functionalities of version 0.6.2 were unchanged, so that you will find here a better user interface and some smaller improvements.

I would be greatly honoured if you could give me some feedback about your experiences with this new release.

New functionalities
-------------------
This release contains the following functionalities, which make the tool more useful (at least in my opinion).

* added a tree visualization (which is the standard view, but the flat list is still available) of the found changes
* show and update copy size if synchronization would be executed in brand new status bar
* added a colour (blue) which shows that synchronizing the difference overwites an existing file
* recursively change behaviour, when changing the behaviour on a folder difference
* show remaining time in progress bar (still not perfect, but better than nothing)
* message if files could not be read when calculating differences

TODOs
-----
So what is missing for future versions?

* Allow the permanent ignorance of files and folder for a synchronization profile
* An icon for the application (Yes... still nobody wanted to help me... -> Help wanted!!!)
* Internationalization support (might be that I have to wait until the Fox toolkit allows it)
* Create a client/server application
* Create a user documentation... Yes... That's always the last thing to do in a project ;-) It would be nice, if somebody could volunteer.

I hope to receive some feedback from you! Tell me what you like and what you dislike. Tell me about your ideas!

Your sincerely,
