I understand why he took out the open window notifier. As more and more people switch to MSN 7, there will be more and more false reports, people asking why SP-NG said their contact had opened a conversation window when they didn't. While an open window notifier is nice, there is a great way to find when people open a window to you - they talk to you!
The CE/DP stealer is a missed feature. TB originally thought he wouldn't be able to include this feature, fortunately he has found a way to do it.
The new version goes beyond just adding/changing a few features. This version allows for various languages to be used, and also allows for the UI to be edited. This is a great foundation on which TB can add the new features, and I'm sure he's hard at work to make version 2.1 as superb as possible
