Because of troubles over at portablefreeware with Dreamhost in the past few weeks and PortableApps focus on an Installer platform rather than new or updated software, there haven't been a great deal of accepted updates by the community to add to the next Kitchen Sink collection. As a result, I'm going to change the release schedule to every 4 months and hopefully there will be more of a reason to post. Need more time to find a BitTorrent distribution system anyhow.
In the meantime, I'll be focusing on my portablefreewarereviews site, which will hopefully help me find new and better software to throw in.
Update: Of course right after I write this, both sites put out updates. Sigh.
[This project has been discontinued due to license compliance issues. Thanks everyone who assisted with your ideas and feedback.]
About

Portable platform is here
Great news: Portableapps Installer just came out, which allows other developers to modify their own applications for PortableApps. This is great because its basically creating a platform for portable software that makes it easy for other developers to get on board and hand their software to users without their users needing to be tech savvy. Hopefully this will pull more developers towards making portable software and this will only increase the size of Kitchen Sink.
Great job, PortableApps.
Great job, PortableApps.

Software addition: Testdisk
After a number of stellar reviews, I'll be including this in my next release. Probably Photorec too.
