TinyWall - darmowy firewall

[ichito]

Autor na Nowy Rok zrobił prezent i opublikował nową wersję - 2.1.7 - i zapowiada kolejną wersję ze sporymi usprawnieniami.

Hi again everybody! I'm very excited, but first let me just start by noting the release of 2.1.7. Nothing major this time so no need to rush, though depending on your monitor+resolution, the added HighDPI-support might come in handy. Of course you might also like the new localizations depending on where you're from. Oh, before I forget, the changelog:

2.1.7 - Maintenance release (04.01.2015.)
- Fix: GUI freezes if Application Finder is closed while scan is running
- Added DPI-awareness (fixes blurry GUI with desktop scaling)
- Add Polish and Turkish localizations
- Updates to Spanish, French, and Brazilian Portuguese translations
- Application database updates

Boring? You decide. The small number of fixes (errm... 1?) is certainly an indication that I haven't received any valid/reproducible bug reports, which, I guess, is good. But 2.1.7 is not why I am excited.

I've been quietly working on the next major version of TinyWall (and just tossed out 2.1.7 to make the wait more tolerable). I'm excited because 1) I've recently reached a major milestone where I can guarantee that the new technology will be able to provide at least feature-parity with the current version, and because 2) I've decided this is a good time to make it public at all that I am working on such a thing. And if you think "this is great, but the info's a bit vague", then yes, that's on purpose

. Call it building a bit of hype, if you want. Anyway, this time it won't be just GUI fixes

. I'll resurface again when there's something to test. Until then, the takeaway of the story is that the lack of updates sometimes does mean something good.
