JBidWatcher 0.3.0alpha released!

JBidWatcher is a java-based auction site (eBay, Yahoo, etc...) bid management tool hosted at http://jbidwatcher.sourceforge.net

The 0.3.0alpha release adds a lot of stability, a much cleaner save-file format, better use of color to indicate information about bids and auctions, a synchronized time display, a web-management interface, a mascot (Jay Bidwatcher!), per-auction event logging, many UI cleanups and improvements. The program is MUCH faster to start up now, smarter about handling auctions that completed while it was not running, and not losing information about auctions that are deleted off of auction sites.

Bugfixes include bidding on adult auctions on eBay, varied currency fixes, one change to support a changed eBay format. Plus LOTS of other more minor and invisible bug fixes.

Bugs are definitely still present, but it's an extremely usable program now, and it's used regularly to bid on, and win, auctions on eBay. Download it and give it a try, and please report bugs back!

Cyberfox!
