Biodiverse 4.99_010 development release is now available

[Shawn Laffan]

A new development release of Biodiverse is now available.

This is version 4.99_010. If all goes well then version 5 will be
released in due course.

The binaries can be downloaded from
https://github.com/shawnlaffan/biodiverse/releases/tag/r4.99_010

I have only packaged a Windows release at this stage. If you are
interested in testing a Mac or Linux (Ubuntu) release then please let me
know.


Changes are summarised at
https://github.com/shawnlaffan/biodiverse/wiki/ReleaseNotes#version-499-dev-series

This is a substantial rewrite of the GUI from previous versions, and a
complete rewrite of the plotting engine (maps, trees, matrices).

There may well be issues and oddities so please report them on this
mailing list or as an issue on the issue tracker. There is also the
discussion forum where general questions can be asked.

The Mac version has now been verified to work on other machines and so
is now available.

There should be one, maybe two, more development releases before version
5 is official.
