Download Private Alpha

Ok, Private Alpha is ready, get it at the Private Alpha website.

Please install it, run Visual Studio and start playing with it.
Remember not to share this program or its website with anyone else, as it is still unstable and I cannot support it right now.

Please read the release notes (you’ll find it at C:\Program Files\Regionerate) carefully in order to see exactly what is provided with the package.

I would appreciate it if you would pay close attention to the following notes during the Private Alpha evaluation period:

Installation – Did the install program run correctly?

Visual Studio Usability – Do you find Regionerate’s Visual Studio plugin intuitive? Do you prefer interacting with Regionate by keyboard or mouse? Do you Regionerate every time you add a member or every few minutes?

Code Layout Usability – Does the Code Layout schema (found in the installation directory) make sense to you? Did you manage to create a brand new Code Layout? Did you find yourself unable to express a certain layout with the current Code Layout schema?

Accuracy – Did Regionerate lose any information in the way? (e.g. lost methods, corrupted fields etc.) Did Regionerate follow the Code Layout correctly? Did all find all code elements in the right places after running Regionerate?

Performance – Does it run smoothly without interrupting the Visual Studio user experience?

Please use the Private Alpha Discussion Group in order to give me feedback and do not e-mail me directly (Its not that I don’t like you, I just want the discussion to be online in order to slowly build a Regionerate knowledge-base).

The evaluation period will last a week, from Sunday, May 20th to Sunday, May 27th. If you find Regionerate useful, you can keep working with it after the evaluation period, but do not pass it to anyone else.

Also, I would appreciate it if you post issues as they pop up and not wait with them until the end of the evaluation period. This will help me provide answers along the way and make better usage of your input.

Above all, thank you very much, I appreciate it.
