Oh ... my ... god ...

Hi everyone,
Last night I had HDD problem and ... I lost about
a week worth of my development work.
One side of me saying
"It's not like you lost everything! You still have most
changes in your head and it's not that difficult to
rewrite those changes. It's OK"
and other side of me saying
"Holly smoke! I've already implemented "Zero-Boost" and
was almost ready for next update ... I also hate to
write something I've already done once! Why didn't you
backup files more often!"
At the beginning I thought it's not a big deal. I thought
all I need was to buy new HDD, use HDD enclosure to
read old data - happened before and worked out that way.
But this time it looks like HDD is physically damaged
(I was getting some warning from OS stating there is a
bad sector found in my HDD about a week ago)
and it looks like I have to say good-bye to my old files
other than the file that I backed up occasionally.
So ... sorry guys, but it looks like I need more time for
next release. I checked the version of the file that I backed up
last and it was "V 0.9.9.3" so first thing I will do is
(once I recover my development environment)
using my old TODO list, go over each item on the list and make sure they
are already implemented. Then, I'll start working on "V 0.9.9.5"
item such as implementing "Zero Boost" again.
Best regards,
Tomo

Just quick update about this.
I got all the development environment set up again and
I think I re-implemented everything. I also set up private
online code repository so that I can minimize the risk
of losing code/productivity like this again.
So ... yeah, I'm fully back to development!
(most people probably already figure this out since I got
V 0.9.9.5 out but I thought someone might think I still
have a machine problem if I don't provide update)
