Actiontastic going Free and Open Source

We've mentioned the "Getting Things Done" application Actiontastic several times on its road to 1.0, but today the developer announced that he has decided to make the application free and open source (instead of $29 shareware, as originally planned). To that end, he has released a new version today for free download (0.9.3), with the source code to follow "when the overhead of a new team won't crush the project under its own weight." He also notes that the forthcoming web-based GTD application Actionatr will also be open source, though a commercial version also is planned.

It was my sense that the GTD space was getting a little bit crowded with Ghost Action, the forthcoming OmniFocus, and many more, so this could turn out to be a really good decision for Actiontastic, particularly if it acquires a significant team behind it. Grab Actiontastic here and see what all the GTD fuss is about.

Thanks to everyone who sent this in!
