It must be the week for portal releases, as there's another one on the loose. After mentioning the release of DarkPortal and Pro-Messenger, Hunter Onhika sent in a tip about a rebuild of pspWxp, known as Encore.
According to the pspWxp forums, pspWxp Encore v4 is the first beta out for the portal. They don't intend to offer a release date till they know how long it'll take, but until then, you can enjoy this portal. They also mention that the interface currently uses the Linux-based K Desktop Environment, and will feature additional themes later on.
As for functionality, their progress is currently at 40 percent, so expect bugs here and there. Still, their readme is very instructive, featuring installation instructions and some troubleshooting tips. In any case, here's the full changelog they've posted on their forums. Give it a try, and let them know what you think. Enjoy!
