[Kilnvisor-users] final release

[Jonathan P. <jo...@co...>]

Thanks for subscribing, all who are here. I show 12 downloads of the
beta software (0.1.0b) and 0 of the release (0.1.0). You should really
upgrade now, before you start using it a lot, but before you do,
please read on.

Reason: The databases in the beta release have the same creatorID as
the ID of the application itself. This means that if you delete the
application (to upgrade or something), all of your databases will be
deleted. The new versions have different IDs, so if you delete the
program, the databases are still there. I thought this was safer.

Problems: I think there's a problem with 0.1.0's calculation of firing
cost. I've gone in and changed some things, but haven't knocked the
bugs out yet. I'll release another version shortly that should be
better. You might want to wait until then to update from the beta
release.

Releases: For those who don't know, the software community has a
convention for software version numbers. I won't give you the whole
thing. The short of it is that software with a major number of zero
(such as 0.1.1) is known to be working, but developing, software. This
means that it works, and should be fine for most tasks, but probably
has bugs. Software written as 1.0 or 1.0.1 is that software you'd be
proud to sell. No known bugs, stable as gibraltar. I didn't want to
wait until that. Release early, release often. I figured it was better
to get it out and usable than to wait 6 months to a year.

Questions/suggestions: If you have questions/suggestions, please email
the list. I'll try to fix it ASAP. This list is to discuss
use/problems, use it.

Next, I'm going to work on GlazeVisor-palm recipe database, then the
desktop version of KilnVisor.

I hope this is useful.

Cheers,
-J
