XCSoar 6.4 released

That's great, Max! I've been using the 6.4 beta for some time now.

Question: Why is there an update to 6.4 beta with 6.4 just released?

There are two Android apps - "XCSoar" (the blue one) and
"XCSoar-testing" (the red one). Both "XCSoar" and "XCSoar-testing"
are now 6.4. Previously, they were 6.3.11 (old stable) and 6.4_beta2.
Soon, "XCSoar-testing" will become 6.5_preview (when 6.5 development
begins), and "XCSoar" will become 6.4.1 (bug fixes).

Max, thanks once again for the continued updates. Will the forum be back up soon for support?

I tried to set up PHPBB on the new server, but it drives me crazy, it
errors out on every occasion. Since I think hacking XCSoar is more
important, I gave up and so far nobody else volunteered to take care
of it. Meanwhile, use the xcsoar-user mailing list if you need help.

Max, thanks for the update. BTW, mapgen jobs seem to get stuck in the queue for the last couple days, FYI.

Just a thought - I notice that your team still have a project on Sourceforge (which is presently handling your mailman lists) - would it not be possible to use the forums associated with this project? It would offload all that pesky admin required to run the forums yourselves.

Going towards SourceForge is the wrong direction. It's bad enough
that XCSoar ever chose to use SourceForge for anything.
