  at my point of view:
  -Masks + Render to Texture: come with OpenGL 2.0 and WP8
  -Encryption of the compiled Lua source files: parallel working, not soon.

  Will it address the following
  * Masks
  * Encryption of the compiled Lua source files
  * Render to Texture
  
  amongst other things?

  Apart from OpenGL 2.0 and WP8, I just hope that we can have more official plugins from Gideros for ad network (e.g. admob / mobclix), especially for Android. I've tried some solutions posted in the forum but they're still having some unsolved issues.
  
  I don't even know how do I monetize my Android app, since paid apps or in-app purchases are not supported in my country.

  @Chang there is always an old fashioned way of simply putting it on top of the GL layer inside Java, without controlling it from Lua.

  I agree totally with the above sentiment so let's stop hassling the guy and let him concentrate on getting us our new toys

  Time to photoshop Atilim with a Santa hat on methinks?
  
  Maybe @Deniz or @Gorkem could sneakily change his avatar instead of announcing the the new version as a bit of Christmas fun!

  @TsubasaOzora - Sorry I thought there'd already been lua based implementations using the public api's - if you need an Android version, you'll have to write (or commission) a plugin.
  
  FWIW - I wrote a simple function to stream content from a twitter account in pure Lua in no time flat - it was just making a http request to the public api. Granted posting might be a bit more tricky - you could possibly try creating a webview and putting some generic javascript in it.

  Isn't Twitter feed available as a json file which all of the data can be parsed in just one call?

  <a href="http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=ozapps&include_rts=1" rel="nofollow">http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=ozapps&include_rts=1</a>

  that will download 20 tweets including retweets (if any) and this can be easily converted into an array using

  json.decode

  I think I got it as an XML file, but pretty much yes - get content, convert to a table, loop over and display - sorted!

  I have this book and it's a good reference for Twitter, Facebook and Google Friend APIs:

  Amen to that. I've had bad experiences with early software that was full of bugs. It was a breath of fresh air to see that Gideros was so stable.
