After a bit of work this weekend, I am happy to announce that v1.1 of the DX_SourceOutliner Visual Studio Add-in is ready for download. You can get the latest binary release from the Google Code site here.
What’s New
Originally supposed to be just a bug-fix (which would have left it at v1.0), while working on it [...]
It seems there’s no substitute for using a piece of software in actual production to really surface bugs and usability issues
This isn’t too surprising to anyone who has been doing software development for any amount of time, but it still amazes me that no matter how comprehensive you think your testing is, there’s [...]
After a final bug-fix, I’m happy to announce that the 1.0 RTM version of the DX_SourceOutliner is now available for download. The binary has been moved to a new Google Code site (check the downloads tab for the binary release).

Catching up: for background, refer to this post where I lay out what I’m trying to achieve and this post where I share some of my progress on the project to-date.
Downloading and installing the DX_SourceOutliner
You can download the latest build as a ZIP file here. Refer to this post for details on how to install, [...]
In this recent post I blogged a bit about some of the limitations of the otherwise very valuable Visual Studio Source Code Outliner PowerToy add-in.
