SkeinFox v1.50 released

A lot of changes in SkeinFox v1.50. Most notably, we're now using the very latest Skeinforge with tons of assorted goodies and fully integrated "Raftless" (thanks Eberhard!). Importantly, you will need to delete/move your ~/.skeinforge directory in order to use the new version of SkeinFox successfully. This was unavoidable since there have been sooooo many changes to skeinforge since Skeinforge-0006. It should be very easy to tweak your old settings back into a new SkeinFox template though. See below for details or reply to this email thread with questions.

Note also that even if you don't have a Mac you can pull the .skeinforge and the 2010-02-25_skeinforge_withRaftless folders from the source code and get the same settings we have used successfully with MakerBot. The new skeinforge is faster, cleaner, better interface, and all around tip-top. yay!

********************
Changelog
********************
2010-03-04 v1.50
• Now uses very Latest Skeinforge (2010-02-14), we are now upstream of MakerBot (read: bleeding edge)
• New Templates for very latest skeinforge -- YOU WILL NEED TO DELETE/MOVE YOUR ~/.skeinforge DIRECTORY BEFORE OPENING SKEINFOX v1.50 TO GET THE NEW TEMPLATES. USING A v1.11 ~/.skeinforge directory is no longer supported. Unfortunately this was unavoidable, but it should be very easy to tweak your old settings back into a new SkeinFox template.
• Contains Raftless by Eberhard Rensch (Thanks Eberhard!) -- Raftless is on and Raft is off by default. Hooray for Heated Build Platforms.
• Fixed git version comparison code, rewritten completely (bug report by Andrew Plumb, thanks!)
• Turned off skeinview by default as it was causing much confusion. Use Eberhard's outstanding Pleasant3D instead.
• Use of new skeinforge fixes inability to scroll Raft settings window bug. Bonus!
• Unfortunately we had to remove TwitterBot in order to upgrade to latest Skeinforge. Future versions may add this functionality back in. If you must have TwitterBot, stick with SkeinFox v1.11 for now, available here: http://github.com/downloads/jmil/SkeinFox/SkeinFox_v1.11.zip
