We here at CUAHSI, and the HydroDesktop development team, are tying up the last couple loose ends for a new recommended release of HydroDesktop. So, if you plan on using HydroDesktop in the upcoming semester, or would like to see a preview of what is in the works, please feel free to take a look at the latest experimental version, 1.5.11 (available for download here:
http://hydrodesktop.codeplex.com/releases/view/97871). The recommended release will be nearly identical to this version with the addition of a couple minor bug fixes in addition to updated help documentation. As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact me!
