MacGourmet 2.2 Now Available
MacGourmet 2.2, a free, minor update with some great new features, is now available.
This release adds a widescreen preference that uses 3 columns to display your information. It also adds table summary views that display information in a new, compact way, and an easy way to search for duplicate recipes. Because of some changes in the display themes, if you are using any of the "add-on" themes you'll want to download new versions from the themes page. MacGourmet 2.2 is also required for the new Nutrition plug-in.One other thing to note is that because the registration engine was updated, you may get asked to "Activate" your copy of MacGourmet. This is normal, and should be the only happen once for you on each Mac you use for MacGourmet.
Also part of the new version is a new method for installing plug-ins. All you need to do to install a plug-in now is: get a plug-in package, and double-click on the package file. MacGourmet will do the rest. Two new plug-ins available now are the Food & Wine site importer, which allows you to import recipes from Food & Wine recipe pages, and the iPhone Web App Exporter, which allows you to build web-based iPhone "applications" made from your recipes. You can find the iPhone App exporter on the Importing and Exporting page, and the Food & Wine Importer on the Web Site Import page.For a full list of changes, please see the release notes.
As always, MacGourmet 2.2 can be downloaded from the MacGourmet download page.

Can you elaborate on the new registration engine? I'm not comfortable entrusting my data to a product with an activation scheme.
Hi Jon,
It should only activate once and it’s only really checking to make sure the serial number is valid. I use the esellerate SDK about as liberally as I can, trying to be sensitive to those who don’t like activation, but still taking advantage of what’s there.

Just got through setting up my wife's (chef) new MacBook and MacGourmet. Noticed that activation is REQUIRED on the new computer, simply having the serial number is not enough. Since she now has all her pastry recipes (1000s) in MacGourmet, what recourse is there in the future when esellerate is no longer in business to create a new activation key and we replace the current MacBook with whatever Apple comes out with in the next few years? All her work is then hostage to a proprietary lock on the software... I understand YOUR need to protect your work; there has got to be a way to better protect what we create using the product, perpetually.
Signed,
A Happy, but concerned, MacGourmet customer
