Bitwrk Versions Save

This is release 0.4.0 of BitWrk, the open marketplace for computing power, featuring the following enhancements:

• A new user interface look
• Quicker returning of result data to application
• Support for jobs up to 512MB in size

BitWrk-Blender has seen some big updates, too:

• Support for Blender 2.71
• Support for linked resources
• Support for scripted drivers

This is a release candidate (preview release) for the upcoming major release 0.4.0 "Venus". Feel free to test this release and report any bugs you encounter. Otherwise, have fun!

This is the first numbered release and accumulates the lessons learned from the previous releases in order to make BitWrk a useful tool for Blender users.

Apart from user interface enhancements, both in the BitWrk client as well as in the Blender add-on panel, this release sports some major new features:

• Support for Blender 2.70 (including 2.70a).
• Accelerated transmission times. A de-duplication algorithm compresses data that is transmitted between clients.

A total of 39 changes were committed, consisting of 24 enhancements and 15 bug fixes. The complete list of changes can be seen here: http://github.com/indyjo/bitwrk/issues?milestone=3&state=closed
