SABnzbd-0.5.0 Beta1 is released

Finally!

After working on it for nearly a year, we are ready for a public Beta test of the 0.5.0 release.

We had a lot of support from our release test group: thank you.

SABnzbd-0.4.12 is released

SABnzbd 0.4.12 maintenance release.

Bugs solved:

• Update unrar for Windows to 3.90 (solves CRC errors when unpacking)
• Don’t show NZB-s no longer present in the RSS feed in the preview (they won’t be matched anyway)
• Default skin: Hitting enter after changing the RSS definition would delete the definition.
• Send Group did not always work properly

Features:

• Add Cheetah 2.2 compatibility (primarily for Linux)
• Add field to API-qstatus XML output.

SABnzbd 0.4.11 has been released

SABnzbd 0.4.11 is essentially the same as 0.4.9, but with less problems.
We skipped 0.4.10, because it failed the tests done by our release team.

Summary:

• Fixed all the places in the UI that needed a session key
• Dropped multi-core PAR2 for OSX (too much problems)
• Added an option to enable/disable multi-core PAR2 for Windows
• Added an option to disable the new security feature (not recommended!)

This should be the final 0.4.x release. We will now concentrate on getting the 0.5.0 release out.
