Well mostly its in my head, because most of the time what I am doing is bug squashing... and in the case of the change between QRZ and RadioID for lookups, flipping stuff back and forth in relation to feedback and flames
So what has changed... well now, lets see..
Code: Select all
New build of DStarRepeater
New build of ircDDBGateway
Not exciting, just bug squashes of a few things - logging was excessive on DStarRepeater, new build should nicely take care of that.
ircDDBGateway would call a now defunct domain on startup, and then keep trying it, that has been fixed up-stream for a while and I just didn't notice.
There are a bunch of minor fixes, specifically I think I have finally squashed the bug that would eat the BM custom password from time to time.
I just *just* pushed a change that checks the TX/RX frequency to make sure that they are viable and within the ITU ranges - this does mean that I have to use a harmonised range of the maximum band edges - this is just a guide and is not country specific.
Also fixed (again) some bugs with how the main password is interpreted to make more of the full symbol set available (for complex passwords).
You can now set the Pre-Shared key for the Auto AP, it was forced to raspberry in the past, we're moving to a future where the out of the box first setup with have no PSK (open network) and you can then set one from the dashboard when you are ready.
This is a sore subject right now, put it in, take it out, change it all, put it back - argh, still I think we have the final solution (until the next complaints roll in), you can choose from the CSS page to use QRZ or RadioID, it only uses new tabs (as before) the popup code that was in there has already been removed - this has not been a fun addition.
Adds a new (GPS) link or (dPRS) link on the D-Star legacy dash, this links to ARPS, well hell someone said it would be nice while telling me off about the RadioID change, and I thought why not...
In the past, clicking shutdown or restart would just do it, now it has a safety catch, asks you if you mean it first, it will still shoot your feet off if you want it to, but thats now two clicks away and not one
The reboot timer was too short, extended to 50 secs.
Yep I did, its finally in there.
Code: Select all
Add an option to have XLX enabled on DMRGateway but with no module declared
Yeah not sure why you would want to, but who am I to argue, so its been added.
The update servers have seen a bunch of work, adding in the ever growing list of HBLink based DMR servers is what you see, but there is much going on at the back end too, these servers serve out over 7TB of update traffic per month (yes thats TB and not GB) serving over 14 million requests per month, (and I do this for free, with 0 advertising to support the costs, you lucky people!!) this does NOT include the changes that we push via GitHub. It is such a large volume of data that I've been working on ways to keep it under control - the pandemic has caused more of you all to keep more of your hostspots on more of the time, so I've seen significant growth over the last 14 months or so - its great to see such wide addoption.
No doubt there is more too, but for the most part its small, bug squash type changes.
