Er is een nieuwe ontwikkelversie van Rainlendar verschenen. Met dit programma is het mogelijk om een kalender op de desktop weer te geven. Rainlendar is beschikbaar voor Windows, Linux en OS X, en is volledig naar eigen hand te zetten. Zo zijn de taal en het uiterlijk aan te passen, kan een alarm worden ingesteld en kan een todo-list worden bijgehouden. Rainlendar is beschikbaar in een gratis Lite- en een betaalde Pro-uitvoering. De laatstgenoemde, die ongeveer tien euro kost, biedt de mogelijkheid om de kalender te delen met anderen en heeft ondersteuning voor synchronisatie met Outlook en Google Calendar. In deze release zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen doorgevoerd:
