So we know you’re all dying to know how much money we raised for Indie+Relief.

Well, we’ve had a record couple of days’ sales, and we’re pleased to announce that we were able to donate some £7,000 to Oxfam earlier today (in case you’re wondering, we rounded up). For our American customers, that’s somewhere in the region of $11,400! This is great news and we hope it’s a big help to the people of Haiti.

We’d like to thank you, our customers, for taking up the Indie+Relief offer so enthusiastically and allowing us to donate such a stunning amount of money to charity. We’d also like to thank Justin Williams of Second Gear and Garrett Murray for organising and running Indie+Relief, and all the other Mac and iPhone developers who gave their time, money and sales to take part.

The total amount raised should appear on the Indie+Relief site some time soon, but it’s already clear from the numbers other Mac and iPhone developers have made public that Indie+Relief has been a resounding success.

We’ve just released what is hopefully the last Beta version of iDefrag 2. We hope to release the new version very soon.

Anybody who purchased iDefrag recently or purchases between now and when we release it, will get a free upgrade.

If you want to try it, get it here (8.7 MB).

As with the previous Beta versions, free stuff to anyone who reports problems we don’t know about.¹ Many thanks to those of you who have reported problems with the earlier versions.

Release notes can be found on our feed which is different to our iDefrag 1 feed so please subscribe to that feed to stay on top of iDefrag 2 releases. Note that the link above will only work in a browser that supports ATOM feeds, such as Safari.

Please remember that even though this is a fairly mature beta version, this is still pre-release software, so please back up first, just in case something goes wrong.

Please send comments about this release to our support team.

1. We’ll be reasonable about the free upgrades and free licenses, but we reserve the right to rescind the offer at any time, and we also reserve the right to determine what is or is not a bug. Basically, if you help us, we’ll give you the free stuff, but if hundreds all report the same bug, some will end up being disappointed. Our decision is final.

All of us over the past few days have borne witness, thanks to reports from the international media, to the terrible tragedy unfolding in Haiti as a result of the recent earthquake.

We wanted to do our bit to help, so as a result, on January 20th 2010, we will be taking part in Indie+Relief and will donate all of our sales to charity (in our case, the money is going to Oxfam).

The more observant amongst you will notice that January 20th starts at different times depending on where you are on the planet; as a result, we intend to donate all sales starting at 12:00 UTC on the 19th and ending at 12:00 UTC on the 21st. While it’s January 20th anywhere, on our site your money will go to charity.

Furthermore, to encourage you to purchase from us, we’re offering a special 10% Indie+Relief discount for this period. Don’t worry though—this discount won’t affect the amount that goes to charity, because we’ll add it back to the amount we donate.

The upshot? You get to donate to charity and you get great software, all for less than the usual price of the software alone.

p.s. Lots of other developers are taking part in Indie+Relief. A list of participants should be available there soon.
