v0.5 Released, and libnifalcon turns 1 year old

Well, it's been a year since I posted what is still the world's stupidest youtube video about the novint falcon (and funny enough, it's also now one of the most viewed). That was also the first portion of what is now libnifalcon.

So, in celebration, I'm releasing v0.5 today, which is chock full of basic functionality and fixes that should've been in a year ago! I fixed a major race condition issue in the firmware loading, so now firmware will reliably load on all platforms. I also added firmware detection mechanisms, though this is still a somewhat manual process. Check the "Test Firmware" portion of the wiki for more information.

I've been updating the trackers with bug and feature ideas, if you have any of your own, please feel free to add them.

Here's to another year of developing libnifalcon. Maybe we'll be to v1.0 by next year.
