Announcement: PhantomJS 2.1

[Ariya Hidayat]

Hi everyone!

On behalf of the brave PhantomJS team, I am pleased to announce the
availability of PhantomJS 2.1! To get the binaries, please follow the
instructions on the website, http://phantomjs.org. A short release
note is also available there.

Also, in case you missed it, January 23 2016 was the 5th birthday of
PhantomJS! A ghost won't be able to offer you a birthday cake, but I
believe that a new release is a proper sugar-free substitute :-)

Now, it's time for a release and birthday party...

Thank you very much!

Best regards,

Ariya Hidayat

Great news!

Where can I have a look at release notes? (diff from 2.0.0)

Thank you!

There might be another, more official, URL, but the change log can be
found here:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ariya/phantomjs/master/ChangeLog

I suppose the Qt upgrade might be hiding other new features:

Thanks developers, great work! The lack of a binary release in 2.0.0 was
one of the blocks on CasperJS support, so hopefully that can move ahead now.

Hi Ariya,

will there be an npm release? https://www.npmjs.com/package/phantomjs

Thanks!

[Ariya Hidayat]

For the n-th time, npm package of PhantomJS is not from this project.
Please check https://github.com/Medium/phantomjs.

I also urge everyone to propose to that project (Medium/phantomjs):

* to make it clear in its README that this npm package is not from the
official PhantomJS project
* to rename it something else, e.g. phantomjs-installer (because really, it is)

I've tried in the past (https://github.com/Medium/phantomjs/issues/10)
to no avail. With the accumulated confusion from everyone and/or the
time to explain this again and again, I think we all should give it a
try again.

Thank you!

Actually just tried, not supported in winxp platform, which is just the platform we need, it will tell "invalid win32 application".

So, How can I compile the phantomjs exe to make it work on winxp platform? Seems related to QT 5.5 version? 

Any help is highly appreciated!
