Get it here.
This beta fixes support for posting to Atom blogs (Blogger not included; that has worked just fine). There is also a fix to restore 10.4 compatibility and another regression from 5.1.4 when moving entries between journals. You may not see save prompts at quit anymore, but worry not: everything is being saved anyway. Let me know of any problems.

MacJournal 5.2b3
Get it here.
This beta fixes a few key bugs: a crash while searching, a crash while customizing the toolbar on Leopard, a problem with dates when switching back and forth between these betas and 5.1.4, and a rare issue with losing entry text. Please let me know of any problems that you see.

MacJournal 5.2b2
Get it here.
Nothing too exciting, but there are some fixes you'll want if you are using beta 1. There's an important fix for Tiger. There's a few small usability improvements, like being able to highlight sections of text in a separate editing window. There's also a few fixes for small regressions since 5.1.4. Check out the full details in the version history if you are interested.

MacJournal 5.2b1
Get it here.
This is a larger release than 5.1.4, but smaller than 5.1. It's largely to support a future iPhone client, but there are some features in there for desktop users as well. For example, LiveJournal users can download more than 50 entries. Also, non-main documents are backed up. Quick Note works better on Snow Leopard as well. However, this release is already feature complete, so nothing else will be added except for bug fixes.
There are a fair amount of under-the-covers changes as well, particularly in blogging, so please try it out and let me know if anything breaks.
9/22 Update: I fixed the beta expiration date for non-US users. If you were seeing a problem, please re-download 5.2b1. There are no other changes in the fixed build.

MacJournal 5.1.4
Snow Leopard is on the Prowl! The Cat is out of the bag! More tortured cat metaphors!
Yes, Snow Leopard is out and so is MacJournal 5.1.4. If you use the former, you'll want the latter as well. There was only one cosmetic issue that I found in 5.1.3 (as well as a rare crash), but that is fixed in 5.1.4, along with some other things. It's a benefit to all three OSes on which it is supported. Download it at Mariner now or get it from the Check For Updates in a previous version of 5.x.

MacJournal 5.1.4b4
You can get it here, however please try to update MacJournal from within the application by using the MacJournal or Help menu to Check for Updates.
This beta is pretty small. I decided to do it to test a new version of Sparkle in the last update and some build environment changes in this release. There is also a long-in-the-making data loss fix that is also in this release. I expect the final release to have no additional changes and be out some time next week.

MacJournal 5.1.4b3
Get it here.
This beta has a few fixes here and there as well as some updates to third-party components that MacJournal uses, like Sparkle. Some rare crashes are fixed, such as one opening the Inspector and editing links on Snow Leopard. A bug where the crash reporter would show up each launch is fixed as well. Tiger users will note that searches from the toolbar will no longer highlight text within the PDF as that was causing a reproducible crash. The issue is not present in Leopard and is still available there.

MacJournal 5.1.3b6
Get it here.
This beta adds some fixes for some rare crashes. There are several improvements in searching: the selections will be easier to see during a search, multiple search terms show up in PDF documents, and fixed behavior when searching only for text. Some new AppleScript commands were added to deal with plain versus rich text. There's also a fix for the live word count accuracy.

MacJournal 5.1.3b5
Get it here.
This beta adds three localizations: Norwegian, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese (the latter two are still incomplete). Please let me know of any problems with these new localizations besides some missing strings in the Chinese ones. Backup behavior and resiliency has been improved. If you were seeing backup errors before, they should go away and backups should be happening (they were likely not happening at all on your machine, even on 5.1.2). The style of journals in the sidebar has changed a bit. There are also new versions of the Media Browser and the Google code, and some fixes for interacting with iWeb.

MacJournal 5.1.3b4
Get it now.
It's a modest list of improvements, but then again, it is a modest release overall. A few minor UI fixes, some new hidden prefs, and a fix for Japanese blogging servers round up the list of changes. This release has been a bit slow because I've been working on future releases at the same time, but expect the final release soon.

MacJournal 5.1.3b3
Get it here.
I intended for this to be the final release, but it's going to have to be a beta for now. I don't expect anything to change between now and then, and "then" is hopefully next week. There's not much in this build either: an AppleScript fix, and import fix for RTFDs with attachments stored externally, a entry deletion fix for WordPress, a fix for Full Screen key equivalents in the F1-4 range, and better error reporting for backup issues. That's about it. Let me know of any problems.

MacJournal 5.1.3b1
Get it here.
This is the first beta of 5.1.3. This is intended to be a very small and quick release, hopefully out this month while I work on some other things in tandem. This release contains all the fixes that I want to do already, so I suspect there will only be a handful of changes between now and the final releases.
There are fixes for some bugs in the UI, blogging, and searching.

MacJournal 5.1.2
MacJournal 5.1.2 is out now! Get it here now, or from the Help menu's Update item. There are a lot of improvements over 5.1.1 in the areas of text editing, blogging, syncing and more. Over the last beta, there are fixes relating to blogging, some improvements in UI layout, and improvements to the Dutch localization.

MacJournal 5.1.2b6
Get it here.
This release fixes a pasting bug introduced in the last beta and improves the reliability of "Send to iWeb". It also improves the layout of the Info bar and adds a "Save a Copy As" menu item (for English users right now, everyone else when they get updated again).
There is also a new logging facility to collect information about file operations that take place, e.g. importing and exporting entries, saving entries, etc. You can turn this on in the Hidden Preferences in the last tab as "Log document file actions". If you are seeing a problem where your data file gets inordinately large (several GB), please let me know as this will be useful.
