lanupdate 0.2.1 released

It's done!
lanupdate 0.2.1 is out!
On this release the main focus is on compatibility with further versions of Java and not on
new functions for the program itselfs.

lanupdate is a tool for keeping your software, in your local area network, always up to date.
At the current state of art lanupdate only comes with support for Microsoft Windows because it's using
the windows-file-sharing.
But the os-independence is in a working process and will come soon! :)

The functionallity is quite simple:
There's one server in the network which keeps the current version numbers of the software and the lanupdate
client which is receving this infos for synchronizing with the local situation.
Whenever an update is required the lanupdate client pops up a window and the user can install the update
from this interface.

Attention for alpha and beta users:
It's recommend to remove the liblanupdate-0.1.jar from your "lib/ext"java installation directory,
because liblanupdate-0.1 and liblanupdate-0.2 are incompatible.
But this is provided from the uninstallation process on the alpha and beta releases.

Greats,
