I will. Good to see some serious development in the area where iCE plays. Here the real battle takes place. I will probably not release a new version of iCE before 2014. Given the time I have available for it things take their time. So Tucano has plenty of time to surpass it.

I Thomas, I agree, there a lot of motivation in this area.
I downloaded iCE and I will use in my testing too. Hopefully I will find time to improve Tucano too.
In this area there is always a moving target, you have to work hard to keep up the pace.
Congrats again! All the best.
