Just yesterday I shared the news that John Kohl was picking up the reins on Galleon from Leon Nicholls. I didn’t expect to see results for a little while, but I’ve been pleasantly surprised. Both 2.3.1 and 2.4.0-alpha are available for download now. This is the first update to Galleon since 2.3.0 was release on April 15, 2006, over a year ago.
John explained the two releases in a forum post:
2.3.1 is just 2.3.0 with some internal cleanups.
The windows build is missing winamp skin files (sorry about that)
Please kick the tires and report anything that broke vs. 2.3.02.4.0 alpha is a branch that introduces HD support.
See release notes for known problems, report anything else.
Version 2.4.0 alpha:
———————-
HD application support. Try out HD photos!
Local forecast page added to weather.
Known problems:
* tracker on music in HD is goofy
* galleon skins in HD don’t cover screen–use tivo skins
* lots of layout glitches in HD
* HD menu highlights are too big for textVersion 2.3.1:
———————-
Upgraded open-source components to mostly current versions
Use track title instead of file name for “Music” listings
Published modified Bananas library
Switched to build with Java 1.5*** Please send in bug reports if there are any problems with things
that work fine in 2.3.0. This release should not behave any
differently ***
I picked this up via TiVoBlog.
