Here's a couple of sites to download it from. If they don't work, just google and you will find more.

The twitter support (or version 2?) has been around for a little while definitely.
FWIW, I normally visit http://m.fring.com to download straight to the phone I think.
In the end, I disabled the twitter plugin, as I found it to be too light in features for my tweeting needs - I found PockeTwit to be perfect. However, if all you need is to send simple tweets and to read other people's outpourings, it is good to see it included in Fring.
hmm, pretty sure fring had the twitter function added pre-xmas?

[APP] Bring The Wine (Sync Exchange Tasks) -[R]- 1/28/2011 -[U]- 06/30/2011 -[V]- 2.0

Name: Bring The Wine (version 2.0)
Welcome to Bring The Wine, the task manager that syncs your phone with your Exchange account. Let's be honest, it's usually ok to forget the milk once in a while. But you should always remember to bring the wine to that party.

What's New
v2.0 has an redesigned interface and allows tasks to be shown in categories. It also includes an improved sync mechanism, better notifications and other minor improvements.
v1.2 comes with faster Exchange sync, better notification and improved reminder.
v1.1 has a slightly simplified interface. It also has improved sync handling and fixes several bugs.
v1.0 has a redesigned setting interface. It also fixed a sync issue with incomplete tasks and includes various graphic performance improvements.
v0.9 adds Exchange Server 2003 support. It also addressed several minor stability and performance issues.
v0.8 introduces a new layout and allows easier access to tasks. It also adds Bing's photo of the day as an option of background photo.
v0.7 adds category support, customizable view and landscape mode. It also resolves issues related editing HTML note, detecting standalone mode and dimissing task.
v0.6 adds reminder support, live tile support and the option to enable/disable background. Now you can not only edit reminder of tasks, you can also receive reminders on your phone (just like old times). Live tile will show the number of incomplete tasks when Bring The Wine is pinned.
Features
* Sync tasks with your Exchange account. Don't use Exchange? Standalone mode allows to manage your tasks without an Exchange account.
* Sync with Exchange Server 2003, 2007 and 2010.
* View, add and update tasks. Supports features like notes, categories, start/due dates and reminders.
* Receive reminders about your tasks on your phone, just like on your PC.
* Customize how tasks are shown. See the information that matters to you.
* Use that slideout keyboard to type faster in landscape mode.
Why We Made It
I used Tasks on my Touch HD everyday, and one of the reasons I'm sticking with WM 6.5 is the lack of Exchange Task support. I realized MSFT isn't going to add this anytime soon, so some friends and I made one ourselves and share with you.
Bring The Wine allows you to sync tasks between Exchange Server and your Windows Phone. It's currently in an early stage, but more features will be added soon and kinks will be ironed out.
Bring The Wine support most Exchange installations. , as long as they're Exchange Server 2003 or later.
If you also want to sync tasks on your Windows Phone, give it a try! Any suggestion and feedback would be appreciated =)

That's what I've been waiting since I flashed WP7 on my HD2. Currently downloading. I will give feedback after I tested around a bit.
[Edit]
First feedback:
Sadly it can't connect to the server. I could probably be because my username differs from the first part of the E-Mail address. There shouldn't be any certificate issues since I installed them correctly and E-Mail, contacts and calender work just fine.

This application looks very promising. I have been looking for a way to synchronize tasks through with WP7 because I rely heavily one them. Unfortunately I can't synchronize my tasks with the program and I believe it may be due to the exchange server but it does function for me on Windows Mobile 6.5. My exchange is through Zimbra and I think I've read that Zimbra uses or is similar to Exchange 2003. Is there any possibility of adding support Zimbra?

@dkp1977
What error message did it say? Or if you can PM me your email address or the server URL you tried to connect, I'll check to see what might be the problem.
@oaa8
I'm not familiar with Zimbra. But if it uses Exchange Server 2003, then it's not supported, as Bring The Wine relies on some features that're only available on Exchange Server 2007 SP1 and newer versions.

Bring the wine - error message
PM is on its way. Thanks in advance, mate.

Though I don't use task much, but it works fine. Good job.!

Great, I've been looking for such app since I got my WP7.
I couldn't get it working with Hotmail (Live) account thou. When I type in m.hotmail.com as server name, the application responds:
"The server is not an Exchange Server."
I thought it should work with Hotmail account: http://arstechnica.com/microsoft/news/2010/08/windows-live-hotmail-gets-exchange-activesync.ars

Self SSL
Hi!
Any chance to support self signed certificates? I read your first post and I acknowledged it but do you have any plan to implement it?
Regards
Cina.

@omikr0n:
Yes Hotmail does support Exchange ActiveSync, but it doesn't support some features Bring The Wine relies on (just like Exchange Server 2003). Currently we're not aware of any way to support them, but we are exploring other options.
@cina:
Self-signed certificate will be supported in version 0.3, which should be available on Marketplace within a week.

Somehow I can't connect to my mail server. Does it have to be https?? Because my outlook is setup as mobile.domain.com and for sure it it doesn't require a secure connection. All our phones work fine with that. But somehow I am getting the "An error has occured" error... By the way, the correct word is "occurred".

@vhaakmat:
Thanks for picking up the typo . Both HTTP and HTTPS work. If you can PM me your email and the mail server URL, I'll take a look =)

I'm in the same boat as dkp1977, my exchange account has a separate domain and user name to the email address, until it supports that I can't really use it.
I was looking forward to having an app that syncs exchange tasks.
Keep up the good work, i'll keep an eye out for when it supports my exchange server.

@feygor:
The domain name in your email doesn't have to be the same as your Exchange server (which I believe is a very common situation). My own email account is like that and Bring The Wine works for me (duh). If you could PM me your email and your mail server, I'll take a look. One thing to note though, currently Bring The Wine will not work if there's a certificate error (self-signed, expired, name doesn't match...etc). It might be the cause of your case. The next update of Bring The Wine will have an option to ignore certificate errors.

@ithinkurdumb
0.3 works fine now, thank you very much. I had to use my username instead of my email though.
The app is really great, but I miss some features that might make their ways into one of the next releases:
- the ability to delete a task
- bring the wine should be able to sync tasks on load
- start and due dates should be visible. Either in a smaller font beneath the task text in the overview or somewhere in the task details
- HTML elements should be stripped from the task descriptions
I know bring the wine is in an early state. Consider it as sort of a wish list. Whatever, it's a really great app that should have been part of WP7. Thank you for all the effort you put into this.

@dkp1977
Glad that v0.3 works for you. The username/email should be a domain thing and shouldn't be different in Bring The Wine than elsewhere. But as long as it works...
Thank you for the suggestions. We actually got similar suggestions from other users as well. #1, #3 and #4 are under development and will be available soon. Could you explain what did you mean by "sync on load" though?

Currently there are no tasks shown when you start the app. I would like the app to immediately sync tasks at the very start.

Exchange 2003
Any chance for Exchange 2003 support?
Regards,
Cina.

One More
It would be nice to decide the length of time for visible tasks. For instance, if you have repeating tasks every month, you only want to see one occurrence of each. Also order by due date, importance, etc.
Just my 2 cents.
very nice start to a very useful app.
Thank you
Is it possible to retain settings after update?

@dkp1977:
We're currently working on a new feature that will allow tasks to be load instantly after the app starts.
@cina:
We do plan to support Exchange 2003 and other services that support ActiveSync (such as Hotmail). But unfortuantely we don't have a timeline for that.
@Wind Dancer:
Didn't know you can have spaces in your XDA screenname . We're working on this and should be available in the next version.
Settings should be retained during upgrades. However from v0.2 to v0.3 we changed several structures so old settings are erased. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Brine The Wine 0.4 is now available
Brine The Wine 0.4 is now available on Marketplace.
New features include cache support and a tweaked interface. With cache support, users will be able to view, add or update tasks without internet connection. Changes made offline will be synced once the phone is connected again. The new home screen now show incomplete tasks ("to-do" in Outlook) and all tasks seperately.

can we undo/remove nodo update??

Considering the only "visible" change is the reduced color depth and the copy paste, there is nothing else why I want to stick to this nodo update...so is there a way I can go back to the first, very first firmware without jailbreaking it..? On Zune I had seen an option of going back to the previous version option once...but can I do it now...or will it have seriously harm the phone's performance in any way??

You would have to flash an older pre-NoDo ROM. This can be done quite easily, but does mean wiping your phone.

Apps and Live tiles

I personally find live tiles one of the best features of windows phone 7 and with mango 7.5 they were supposed to improve.
I thought it might be useful to have a list of apps which work with live tile updates and also where there may be some issues
on the stock apps i find the messaging, mail, calendar and call tiles work fine
the pictures tile is great now as it shows a screensaver with your favourite pictures - not sure if there is alimit to the number of pictures it shows in rotation
however i have had problems with the me tile and app in general
when i go into it the notifications do not update even though it is connected to facebook and facebook shows new notifications
regarding 3rd party apps i found the following work
beezz - displays counts of new twitter tweets
weather duck -displays temperature
those which i cant get to work at all are
twitter
facebook
has anyone else had similar problems with these apps

I never installed Facebook app because I found it redundant with People hub. Windows Live with Messenger and pretty much everything else that comes with Mango works very well for me.
I am on Mango 7220 and all my live tiles work - People hub (probably WP7's main selling point for me), phone, messaging, Me (and any people I pin to Start) Pictures shows the sliding pics from the camera roll album and defaults or favorites by choice, Calendar updates the events from pretty much everything you have going, was surprised to find Facebook event invites synchronised as well as appointments and birthdays. Overall it feels like WP7 ties everything together from every source and account.
So the solution to your problem would be Mango. Go for it, you won't regret it.

Very simple indeed
