nWire 1.0 RC1 Is Out!

We are very happy to announce that nWire 1.0 RC1 is out. The version is still numbered as 0.9.4, but it is the 1.0 First Release Candidate. This means you should expect the final release of version 1.0 to be generally available soon. This release is feature-complete, thus, only minor cosmetic changes and bug fixes are expected before release 1.0.

One of the main visual change in the future releases will be an adaptation to our future logo. We are now finalizing the nWire new logo. This logo would appear on our web site and inside our software in time for the 1.0 release.

In this release, the major change was to the logging system. First and foremost, we eliminated most of the log output you saw in previous releases and gave a slight performance boost to the system in the process. Next we added a new logging preferences pane. This pane is for these rare occasions where we ask our users to turn the logging on, so we can better solve problems which occur on their machines. Up until now, this was done through manipulation of configuration files. This is one final step we needed to make sure we can provide the best possible support to the 1.0 release.
