Hi Everyone!

A new unstable release for the OpenNI(1.3.2.3)/NITE(1.4.1.2)/
Sensor(5.0.3.4) modules was just uploaded to www.openni.org.
Sources were updated on GitHub as well.

This release fixes several critical issues that have been discovered
lately:
* After loading the skeleton calibration data, the hands would default
back to the T-Pose by mistake.
Bug report: http://groups.google.com/group/openni-dev/msg/f9ca614b0e0cb739
* Skeleton joints had wrong confidence of 1.0. The actual confidence
should be lower.
Bug report: http://groups.google.com/group/openni-dev/msg/cc8fb34aff07ece0
* Fixed a crash in the hands recognition on Linux 64 machines.
Bug report: http://groups.google.com/group/openni-dev/msg/5fff6baae30c8557
* The Linux & MacOSX installers did not create the "/var/lib/ni"
directory which caused installs on "fresh" machines to fail.
Bug report: http://groups.google.com/group/openni-dev/msg/1fd5a73b8b771859
* NITE samples were compiled as 64-bit only instead of universal 32/64
bit on MacOSX.
Bug report: http://groups.google.com/group/openni-dev/msg/619f54d19803584d
* The Sensor redist script did not support 64-bit builds on Windows
machines.

There are still one more critical crashes in NITE on Linux 64-bit
machines which we are currently working on:
* Random crash when leaving and entering the scene multiple times on
Linux 64-bit.
Bug report: http://groups.google.com/group/openni-dev/msg/492b62919d3bc34b

The full change log is out in the unstable branches on GitHub...

Thanks everyone for the great feedback and help!

Ziv.

I'm taking a stab at merging Avin's old build with PrimeSense's new
release. Not sure how it will turn out, but it gives me something to
do while I wait for Avin's release.

You need to switch to the unstable branch...

Hi Ziv,

thanks for this :)
Is this a readme or something to help me to build the lastest NITE
sources.
I try to launch the install.sh file with the right serial,
but it doesn't seem to work (I've nothing display in the terminal).
Any ideas?

thanks :)
K
