- The due date for the workflow item is copied over from the due date for the meeting action (provided that the action has a due date, and provided that the workflow definition asks for a due date).
- The start date of the action becomes the start date of the workflow item (again, where applicable).
- Provided that the text of the action is short enough, the text is used as the subject of the workflow item. Previously, the text was always put into the item's description.

NEW feature - pre-population of workflow items from meeting actions
We've improved the creation of workflow items from meeting actions (i.e. what happens when you open a meeting action and click on the "Create workflow item" link):

NEW feature - improved minutes editing
We've made some changes to the agenda- and minutes-editing to make things more flexible, particularly when re-arranging agenda items which have been put forwards by other participants and automatically added to the agenda:
There are also keyboard shortcuts for each of these actions: Ctrl+Alt+P promotes the current sub-topic to the top level; Ctrl+Alt+M followed by a number key moves or demotes the current topic into another top-level topic.
- Sub-items can now be moved from one top-level topic to another.
- A sub-item can be "promoted" to top-level.
- A top-level topic can be "demoted".

NEW feature - participant status when creating meetings
We've implemented a feature which a number of people had been asking for:
If you have "participants" who are only intended to receive the minutes, and aren't actually going to be present in the meeting, you no longer have to create the meeting and then edit the list of participants to change these people's status.
- You can set the status of each participant - present, absent, access to minutes only - when first creating a meeting.
If you have "participants" who are only intended to receive the minutes, and aren't actually going to be present in the meeting, you no longer have to create the meeting and then edit the list of participants to change these people's status.

The Matchpeg Introducer scheme is now the Matchpeg Affiliate scheme
We've changed the name of our introducer affiliate scheme from Matchpeg Introducers to Matchpeg Affiliates. It turned out that users from outside the UK weren't familiar with the term "introducer", and too many people were missing the scheme's benefits because they never clicked on the link on the website.
The scheme itself remains entirely unchanged, and very simple:
You receive commission whenever your referrals spend money with us by buying pay-as-you-packs or paying subscriptions. Therefore, you don't just get a one-off payment; it's recurring revenue based on how valuable your contacts are to us.
The scheme itself remains entirely unchanged, and very simple:
- Earn on-going commission by referring colleagues and friends to Matchpeg, either by word-of-mouth or from links on your website or blog.

NEW feature - bulk user creation from Outlook
We've added a new feature to the user administration area:
(As is no doubt obvious, the tool is only for people who are users of (a) Microsoft Outlook, and therefore (b) Microsoft Windows.)
- Users of Microsoft Outlook can now download a small tool which automatically creates Matchpeg user accounts from contacts in Outlook.
- You log into Matchpeg using your normal user name and password.
- You let the software connect to Microsoft Outlook - this requires you to accept a standard Outlook security warning about automated access to your contacts.
- You choose the contacts you want to create as users in Matchpeg.
- You tell the tool to do its stuff.

NEW feature - extra workflow fields
We've added another new feature to Matchpeg Workflow:
- You can now create two bespoke text fields and two bespoke number fields in each workflow definition. These can be used for any purpose you like - you simply give them an appropriate label.
